Emily's sweet little beauty

Been quilting this with a paisley design. I'll do a feathered border when I get to it.



I do all this on a domestic sewing machine. I love my machine, but I do wish there was a little more space so I had to wrangle less. How I wish I had a long arm machine.
Love this quilt. The quilting is turning out beautifully despite the black thread being so hard to see.

Feathers, feather, feathers.

I have been crazy for feathers lately.
 Just a practice square this morning. The square is only 6 inches square so this is much smaller than it seems.


These are all from a simple Irish Chain quilt. I'm free forming all of these and just trying to fill the squares. Going to be working on this one for a long time.

The Matjana Pre-school auction quilt. Auction starts next week. We have heaps of other lovely items to auction too. Watch this space.
 Feathers on a quilt I'm working on for a dear friend. I love that turquoise thread against the magenta. Really pops doesn't it?

Feathers are fun and beautiful. Why not try some on your next quilt?

A grey cobblestone quilt

In between playing with fun free motion quilting for the matjana quilt and Ruby Star Shining for Courtney I've been working on this lovely quilt for my mother in law. 


It's coming along quite nicely. I hope to have it finished next weekend.
