My Livejournal Quilt Block Swap

Posted on

I can’t be the only person who back in the day had a LiveJournal account, can I? It was about 12 – 13 years go I was active there and while active I participated in the quilting group on that platform. I must have gotten into an ambitious mood because I participated in a 12.5″…

Star Struck quilt designed by Bonnie Hunter

Twinkling Stars

Posted on

I started another Bonnie Hunter Star Struck quilt last year in black and brights. This one I’m calling Twinkling Stars. Like so many of my projects I never got that far with it last year. So unsurprisingly it ended up on my UFO list this year. I got the top together at some point in…

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…
