Indigo Circles Quilt


Finished this last night!  The dragonflies are a bit hard to see in the photo but I am very pleased with them.
And who let me buy that pattern on Friday?  Now I have another project just when I swore I wouldn't start anything new!!!

Actually, I already had the fabric and was just waiting to find the right pattern.  Very Christmassy I think.

Happy Visit


Today four of our group visited one of our more distant members and had a lovely morning. Unfortunately we all forgot our cameras so we can't share with you any pics of her latest vintage sewing machines and accessories or hand made shoes but we were impressed as always. Also with Nikki the car who is not much bigger than a sewing machine him/her self!

Now that I've finally worked out how to get onto this site girls, words have deserted me!

Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3...



I finished this stitchery recently and thought I would upload a picture of it just to see if I could.
Have invited the others to join us as authors of this blog!

First post

Thanks Michelle, for setting up our group's blog! Yesterday I finished cutting out 1066 one and a half inch squares for my son's Kaffe Fassett snowballs quilt ... just have the border triangles to cut now and being in a stripe fabric they are tricky. I think I am avoiding a difficult task as I have been out early and filled the green bin with trimmings and weeds. The garden looks neater now but it's very dry, especially in the front (western) part. I tried to add a photo but an "internal error" prevented it, so better luck next time. Anne.
