New Projects

Hello,

I know I promised two weeks ago to share my latest projects, but life gets in the way!! Finally I can show you some pictures of the projects, what they shall be will remain a secret until finished.

It feels good to be sewing again and spending some time with my friends, although at times our sewing circle is sometimes a sewing triangle!! It seems harder for us all to get together.

This weekend my sister and I will visit the quilt show in Ballan and

look forward to seeing the new Mill Rose Cottage patchwork shop, I have seen the building renovations and it looks awesome. The classroom is fantastic and I look forward to teaching classes there in the near future.

My gorgeous sister surprised me tonight with a beautiful framed piece made up of 7/8 inch grandmothers garden blocks. There is one block for each day that we sat together and stitched while we waited for our beautiful boy to wake up and one each for emotion/feeling that we shared. I wouldn't have made it through without her support. We cried, laughed and stitched together. Cheers for now....Kerry x

New Quilt in the making.

Hi Everyone.

I have nearly complete my new quilt with the tiny hexagons in it.

Here is a picture of part of the near completed quilt, it is off at the quilters at the moment waiting for Vivienne's qulting machine to be free then I am going up to her place to help with the quilting....now that will be different for me. I usually only work on the quilt tops BUT she wants me to help with this one....I will have to tell you how I go and if I like doing it ...lol.

Here it is ....

Cheers

Kookaburra's and New Project

Hi Everyone

Hope you are all well.

I have a few photos I would like to show you .

Firstly is a picture of my birthday present I got from my hubby a few weeks ago, I just love kookaburra's so when I received this I was over the moon. It's a bird bath with 3 copper kookaburra's sitting on a piece of steel rod. Its looks devine in my garden.

The designer is from Tasmania named Kooper Tasmania, how clever some people are.

Secondly is a sneak preview of my new quilt I have been working on over Christmas.

I brought this bundle of fabric on my trip over seas last year in Atlanta.

It has a big appliqued panel across the top followed by row by row of different patchwork blocks.

I have been checking out fabric for a border. I think I have it right now.

Gee that can be the hardest thing to pick sometimes.

Not a lot of my quilts end up with borders BUT I just felt that this one needed it.

Once I have the borders on off to the quilters. Yippee !!!!!

The pattern should be available in a couple of months.

Take care.

Cheers

"Cuppillar"

To your left.
I have finally finished stitching the last in my bed runner series and sent it off to the quilters.

"Birds of Paradise"

Thanks to the ladies who helped in the naming of this quilt, the birds are appliqued on last so its a fun bright, cheery, easy quilt to make.

Hope you like it .

"Ducks on Parade"

In this quilt there are nine appliqued and stitched ducks in 5 different styles

and colours. Once again its a funky, bright, fun quilt to do.

They are both at the quilters and will be launched at the AQM in November in Melbourne.

My New Design

..... A section of my new bed topper.....

Hi everyone.

Hope this post finds you all well and stitching madly.

It's raining here today, what a beautiful sight it is when you haven't seen rain for as long as we have.......even the garden is smiling.

Here is a small section of my new project, it's a painted and stitched panel for a queen bed topper or runner whichever you like to call it, I haven't completed the patchwork part of it yet as I haven't found the right fabric BUT when I do you will be the first one to view it.

Let me know what you think of the panel so far please.

Have a good one.

Cheers

Kerry
