Hand applique raw edge for the first time!


This is a center block for the new quilt I am making, it is a Laundry Basket Quilts pattern, Edyta Sitar has such beautiful fabrics and wonderful patterns it fills you with a warm fuzzy feeling when making them!


I am going to hand applique, never have on raw edge so wish me luck! A little apprehensive but I am going to plunge and have fun!

My Brother's Present

I  have been making this for my brother a while now. its the British flag using hexagons, which was a great project to have on the go.  I also made these half square triangles to go around the border.



I am now in the process of quilting and hope to have some images of the finished project soon.

Hexagon Pillow


Finally a picture to share. I made this for my mother its hand pieced hexagon pillow and machine quilted. Its the first time to make a complete pillow and loved it from the start. I plan to make more time  permitting as it was so much fun. It was a project I could take with me.

I plan to make a smaller pillow with 1/2 inch hexxies.... see you then :)
