On the Spur Quilting : February 2015

On the Spur Quilting. What we do in life echoes in eternity (Latin Proverb). Friday, 27 February 2015. Getting All Antsy Pantsy. It seems hard to imagine that I started my Explorer Series 7 years ago. In 2008, I signed up for an art quilt class at the NSW Embroiders Guild with Carolyn Sullivan in the vain hope that working in this genre would better suit me. I wanted to work smaller, more creatively and in series (. In effect - smarter. Does that sound a familiar refrain? 2 Coral Garden (32 x 38cm).

On the Spur Quilting : January 2015

On the Spur Quilting. What we do in life echoes in eternity (Latin Proverb). Wednesday, 28 January 2015. Never a dull day. Nepal – what can I say! This was yet another wonderful experience to follow on from those great days in Delhi. Although I did stitch – very occasionally – most of my time was spent discovering the delights of this amazing country. If I had a day free, then I would catch a cab into old Kathmandu and walk my socks off. Hampered of course, by a broken leg…. But it will happen…. A Bright...

On the Spur Quilting. What we do in life echoes in eternity (Latin Proverb). Thursday, 26 March 2015. Bears in the Wild. Arcadia, Maine: 2011. Inspired after my efforts with the New York Quilt (. It was quite the feverish high! I quickly took up another stack of memento fabrics I’d purchased in Bar Harbor ME whilst on a trip through the Arcadia National Park (7/9/10). This trip has special memories. I was on walking sticks having landed heavily on (and badly twisted) my ankle a few days prior. I never di...

On the Spur Quilting : Game for Colour
http://onthespurquilting.blogspot.com/2015/04/game-for-colour.html
On the Spur Quilting. What we do in life echoes in eternity (Latin Proverb). Sunday, 5 April 2015. Understand why I was smitten. The moment I saw Colour Game. I knew I had to have a go - one day. Aside from the colours, I saw a fantastic opportunity to use those lovely fabrics I had coloured in 2002 at the dyeing workshop with. Great, FINALLY using up fabrics from the stash and especially those not so easy to incorporate - hand dyes. At last, in April 2013, I made a start (. Who along with Mary Mashuta.

On the Spur Quilting. What we do in life echoes in eternity (Latin Proverb). Thursday, 25 April 2013. It's time to take a serious break from the computer (and my garden shed) to catch up on some research and photograph more interesting masterpieces of the textile world. Join us on the jolly ship Windjammer. Or check in with the Textile Tourist. From time to time to see what I've discovered, which will hopefully be interesting. New Years on the Harbour: 2012. South Pacific Drums: 1997. I planned to use fa...

On the Spur Quilting. What we do in life echoes in eternity (Latin Proverb). Sunday, 31 March 2013. Machine Embroidery Workshop: 1990. I managed to find a space on a machine embroidery workshop in Armidale (Jul 12-14 1990) with Wendy Wright ADVA which was quite exciting – and rather liberating as well. I learned to push my old (. Elna to its limits. Of course everyone else seemed to have a fancy Bernina, but it was still fun and came in good stead a few years later in Dover Heights. So with my mind burst...

On the Spur Quilting : Getting Organised…And in SLOW Order
http://onthespurquilting.blogspot.com/2015/03/getting-organisedand-in-slow-order.html
On the Spur Quilting. What we do in life echoes in eternity (Latin Proverb). Thursday, 19 March 2015. Getting Organised…And in SLOW Order. I’m now at the stage of having more unfinished than finished quilts to document and it’s playing havoc with my plan to list them by the year I started them…and then post in that same order. My plan has reached the term of its natural life and I’m starting to worry about OCD tendencies…. So, after much thought, chaos theory (. I will now post as I finish. It’s Ne...

On the Spur Quilting : No Quilting Here
http://onthespurquilting.blogspot.com/2015/04/no-quilting-here.html
On the Spur Quilting. What we do in life echoes in eternity (Latin Proverb). Sunday, 5 April 2015. I have omitted to put in a little about 2012, a busy year that slipped away without so much as a by your leave. This was of course, the big “Year of Flooring” when the kitchen, lounge and garden shed floors (about 1/3 of our house space) were re-laid. That meant significant upheaval, lots of dust and frequent blue language. The ripping was not a major issue and easily fixed. Then came the news that we were ...

On the Spur Quilting : Shaping Up
http://onthespurquilting.blogspot.com/2015/03/shaping-up.html
On the Spur Quilting. What we do in life echoes in eternity (Latin Proverb). Thursday, 19 March 2015. So begins the epic kitchen reno.bring on that BBQ! January 2011 marked the beginnings of this OTS blog…. Now a big 4 years. 8230; and my early efforts to shape an unruly quilt list into an on-line album! It also heralded yet another Australia Day Exhibition (2011) so the midnight oil was burning to have MORE quilts to hang. Well, we couldn’t hang too many of the same ones could we? 8220;Hmmm, nice idea I...
