Twinkling Stars

Posted on

I started another Bonnie Hunter Star Struck quilt last year again in black and brights. Like so many of my projects I never got that far with it last year and it ended up on my UFO list this year. I got the top together at some point in the spring and I’d been wanting…

Crayon Box Star Quilt

Posted on

I was looking for an easy simple project this past week. I was on vacation and wanted to do something that would be fun. No fussy small pieces or new to me techniques. So as you can likely guess, I spent most of the day surfing Pinterest, blogs and didn’t find anything I liked for…

Happy Laundry

Posted on

The three quilts on the right are recent finishes that needed to be washed as I’d used basting spray when making the quilt sandwich. The quilt on the far left has been in regular use and it was time for it to get a wash. And why put quilts in the dryer when you can…

Two finishes

Posted on

This week last week was productive with two finishes! One is a UFO and the other is a current year start.  Having a few long conference calls that didn’t involve video was the secret to my success. Paid attention to the calls but was able to sew binding on while people were talking about things…

Stars in the Darkening Sky – Finished

Posted on

At long last Stars in the Darkening Sky is a finish. We quilted it at Whirls n Swirls and used a wool batting. I finished it off with a scrappy binding and even managed to find some of the fabric from the star points to use for this!  This is my second UFO finish for…

UFO List December 1st 2019

Posted on

Here are the UFO’s on my list that are still to be completed as at the beginning of December 2019. Since July I have made not too much progress,  however, I must brag that I did finish 16 UFO’s in the first half of this year.  UFOs do not include any projects started in 2019…

Starstruck is a Finish!

Posted on

I’m happy that my Starstruck quilt is finally finished! About time!   This one is going on the wall in my sewing room! I just love how the colours glow against the black background! There isn’t a lot of wall space in the room as I have shelves up so I’m hoping this will just…

Blue Sawtooth Stars

Posted on

Quite a number of years ago, how many I’m not sure, I decided I’d make 9 – 8.5″ blue sawtooth star blocks. I don’t recall making them or having a plan for them. Not surprisingly they’ve floated around the sewing room for years.  As part of my “get old projects done” push I pulled them…

Purple Galaxy

Posted on

Here is a picture of my Galaxy Quilt top. It’s a design by Deb Tucker. It was started at retreat last year and had needed the outer border put on which as you can see has finally happened. As this is a bit wider than I like to handle on my home sewing machine so…
