'Fernhill'

Hope all of my fellow Sample Sisters are having a great day. I managed to fit in a little sewing which seemed a rare luxury. Certainly far more enjoyable than 'weed pulling'!!

Here is the result - my 'Fernhill' all complete and hanging on its specially made hanger. See how well the hanger matches the rimu architraves. 'Fernhill' just looks so right on the hanger don't you think. Please thank Daniel very much Leeanne.

Now on to free motion quilting my 'Birdy Love' I have been putting it off but it is time to bite the bullet and give it a go.

Take care, hugs Sample Sister 'B'

Yo Sisters!

It's Golly time!

My friend & customer Jenny gave me two quilts to work on for her, I thought you Golly fans might enjoy this one.

I would love to see some posts from you other sisters, maybe your piles of stuff you are gathering for retreat??

Hugs from your Sample Sister 'L'

Ready for Reotahi

My retreat seat is finished so I am going to be very comfortable as I sew at Reotahi. I have also just finished cutting out the quilt I am going to work on so I am all set to go!! It is amazing what can be acheived when one gets a couple of hours of uninterupted time to oneself. Now I just have to get my block holder made so I have something special to put my blocks in as I finish them at retreat. Wonder how far I will get with the quilt during retreat?

Friends

A finish!!

The first for my "GIFT" box!!

A gift finish achieved

Don't think I can claim this as my first christmas gift of the year, but I have managed to get this little cutie finished for a new baby in between looking after 10 house guests this Easter weekend!!

Apple Pie anyone

Just picked the apple on the left. The one on the right is a 'normal' size apple. I think one
apple is all that is required for apple pie tonight! It weighs 1/2 kg.

I bought the tree as the variety name appealed to me - it is a 'Peasgood Nonsuch' an old English heritage apple. Only the English could come up woith a name like that! No offence intended Aurely.

our wee trip

I forgot to put this photo on my blog. Looking forward to taking you other sisters that couldn't make it.
