Jaffa quilts: March 2015
http://jaffaquilts.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Gypsy Wife QAL 2016. Tuesday, 17 March 2015. I seem to have started the year by actually beginning every project I want to complete this year (or it feels like it anyway)! Not really the best way to work, I end up making myself feel all flustered and stressed. My design wall (aka the batting stapled up on the laundry wall) reflects some of the different projects underway. I have also started hand quilting Adrianne's stars. I wasn't expecting to enjoy this but I do! 1 down, 51 to go :-). Click here to fin...

Jaffa quilts: November 2014
http://jaffaquilts.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Gypsy Wife QAL 2016. Sunday, 23 November 2014. I do love a good tote bag. Its seems I carry a lot of stuff around, particularly books and papers, so for me, a good tote bag needs to be sturdy and have handles that are a comfortable length. I have been wanting to try Adrianne. S tutorial for a while now, and finally got around to it this weekend. I used some of my very favourite fabric for this bag (Lizzie House Catnap) and the Soft and Stable that Adrianne recommended (from Stitchbird. By April Rosenthal...

JulieLou . quilting, reading, gardening, cooking, sewing, hiking - the things that make me happy! Friday, 31 July 2015. Scenes from my Week. From the sewing room. This log cabin block for my scrappy sampler quilt. These delicate cyclamen, that luckily haven't been destroyed by frost. From the book pile. The Truth According to Us by Annie Barrows. From the mail box. Surprise mail from Carla who blogs at The River. Wishing you all a fabulous weekend. Friday, July 31, 2015. 1 August 2015 at 01:14. I am marr...

Milly Made It.: Slow Sewing
http://millymadeit.blogspot.com/2015/06/slow-sewing.html
Sunday, June 28, 2015. I recently ordered a handwork project. And that made me think that I should do something with the one I have had on the shelf-o-fabric since before Christmas. So it involves tracing, freezer paper, needle turn applique videos on youtube, basting and quite a bit of finger pressing. Roll on the school holidays. 5 days to go. June 28, 2015 at 8:09 PM. Looks fun - cant wait for the holidays either. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I am a high school teacher who likes to make quilts.

Milly Made It.: A Round Robin Starter
http://millymadeit.blogspot.com/2015/07/a-round-robin-starter.html
Friday, July 17, 2015. A Round Robin Starter. Our Monday Modern group is starting a round robin. Our first centre blocks are due at our August gathering in a couple of weeks. I thought I would get mine done while I have the head space (school hols). First, I wanted something circular but thought that would be a real pain for the next person in the round robin, so I went with curves. This hung around on the 'design wall' (ha!

Milly Made It.: Prototyping for the Round Robin
http://millymadeit.blogspot.com/2015/08/prototyping-for-round-robin.html
Sunday, August 9, 2015. Prototyping for the Round Robin. Our Monday Modern group has started a round robin. I have passed on tui o'clock -. At our gathering last week, I received June's centre block. She must have a nice collection of low volume fabrics. I was keen to replicate the green flying geese-like shapes, so set out to prototype possible triangles using scrap fabrics-. I would love to see some gold or fuchsia added to this quilt in the next round. August 9, 2015 at 1:13 PM. I am a high school tea...

Jaffa quilts: If at first you do not succeed...
http://jaffaquilts.blogspot.com/2015/05/if-at-first-you-do-not-succeed.html
Gypsy Wife QAL 2016. Sunday, 10 May 2015. If at first you do not succeed. I have learnt something important over the few short years that I have been quilting. If I start something and I don't really like it, continuing on will not make it grow on me. I have been wanting to make an Irish chain quilt for a while now, and thought that a dark chain would look really dramatic with my AMH Folk Song fabric. Indeed it does look pretty dramatic. It is quite a different look but I'm much happier with it. I'm ...

Milly Made It.: Slow Sewing Progress
http://millymadeit.blogspot.com/2015/07/slow-sewing-progress.html
Thursday, July 16, 2015. I have been chipping away slowly at my Botanics quilt -. Those inner curves are very tricky and those tiny holes inside the darker blue circles are even trickier! I haven't made progress with anything else. Linking up with Lee's WIP. Which I haven't done for a long time. July 16, 2015 at 12:08 PM. Oh, how I drool over Carolyn Friedlanders needle turn patterns, but needle turn somehow feels like mending rather than something enjoyable to me. Lovely WIP. July 16, 2015 at 1:00 PM.
