Every Stitch: The Burnt Quilt
http://everystitchblog.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-burnt-quilt.html
Wednesday, 7 November 2012. I have been working on The Burnt Quilt aka "Oh dear, Mrs Tompkins" (Di Ford's lovely reproduction pattern ) - using the Dutch chintz central panel in the centre. I am also using a small stash of Dutch chintz florals in the big stars, though I hate chopping them up. If you know the pattern, you might see I have avoided doing the tricky inner borders by replacing them with appliqued red stars (fun to do with English paper piecing) . That is what I am working on at the moment.

Every Stitch: August 2015
http://everystitchblog.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Monday, 10 August 2015. My new quilt is progressing quite quickly. I only showed a snippet last post as I had to sort a few design "issues" (grrr) that I had with it. Now there is more to show. Might be a. Here is the broderie perse centre for the quilt - all cut from Tree of Life. It was a bit of a mess at first auditioning the pieces - so hard to visualise at that stage! Some drafting of patterns. Am I making it sound simple? Well I didn't find it that way! Then some needle turn applique. Now for somet...

Every Stitch: Merry Christmas!
http://everystitchblog.blogspot.com/2014/12/merry-christmas.html
Wednesday, 24 December 2014. I didn't think I'd manage it, but here it is . a Christmas post. Nothing like a last minute deadline. I finished the hand quilting on my Four Block applique quilt. And bound it just in time to hang it with the Christmas tree. And when I say "not perfection" that includes nicking the background with my scissors (insert ladylike expletive at the time) - not just once, but twice -. Making two little holes! Wedding quilt: Block 12 finished - a relatively simple one this time.

A condition with no known cure. I retired in 2004 and have never missed the 8-5 grind even for a minute. Now I spend my time reading, traveling, quilting and trying to learn new things like Spanish and blogging. April 25, 2014. I have been a quilting derelict for months but this week I got inspired to tackle the Japanese Jigsaw I have been eyeballing. I borrowed the pattern from a friend so long ago, she probably thinks I have stolen it. … Continue reading →. 12 x 12–Favorite expressions theme. There wer...

A condition with no known cure. Newer posts →. September 3, 2013. For the first time ever, I am going take some quilts to the “sale room” at QuiltFest 2013 and I realize I never posted about this quilt (which is on my sell list). Last year when I was trying to decrease my stash, I ordered the book Radiant Sunshine and Shadow: 23 Quilts with Nine-patch Sparkle. I will report back on this first foray into marketing my wares. Back at the machine and loving it. August 16, 2013. August 9, 2013. So I looked at...

A condition with no known cure. Quilt sale room report →. 12 x 12 catch up. September 18, 2013. I am caught up for our September theme (doors)! Man, does that feel good. I missed the last two meetings so I procrastinated making the quilts. My Season theme idea is not my favorite but I did try two new (for me) techniques–stick-on crystals and couching. In an effort to show more process (and there is a lot of it in these little art quilts), here are the evolution shots of my snake and my grass🙂. Address n...

Every Stitch: June 2015
http://everystitchblog.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 23 June 2015. I'm back from a fun mini break in Sydney - visiting the Quilt Show followed by a Sydney city hotel stay with my daughter, meals out and shopping. So many exciting experiences crammed into a short stay! I took 101 photos of the Quilt Show but due to the strict publishing rules cannot show individual quilts without permission. The collection of red and white quilts were so pretty en mass. There are pics on the Quilt Guild blog. But just saying .how lovely it looks and feels. We had a...
