First Finish of 2007

Phew. Do you ever get that feeling of when will I finish it? This seems as if it has gone on forever. Did I mention you had to hand quilt the Crazy Scraps Challenge quilts? You don’t have to if you don’t want to! BTW has anyone taken up this Challenge?

Merci Mille Fois

A big thank you to Kim for letting me using her February No Fabric Diet badge. The HTML has worked perfectly this time.

Another big thank you to Suzette at Stashbusters for letting me join the Stashbusters ring.

On that note I am disappearing – guess who added the binding to Crazy Scraps last night!

WiP Wednesday

Not a lot to report – the gas has run out!

Sophie’s quilt is being tied and have nearly finished the quilting on Crazy Scraps.

So much for finishing by the end of this week.

WiP Wednesday

A good’ish week I think.

Nancy’s Heartstrings are finished and waiting
to start their journey across the pond to Texas. As she is very kindly doing me a 9 patch red and white top for Quilts 4 Leukaemia, she will probably get some more out of me, but not yet as

………………..

I have started Sophie’s Leukaemia quilt.

This one has been put together by my Alexandra. We have blocks from Turkey, France, Finland, Germany, Italy, the UK and America.

I have sashed together the bottom 2 rows and should have this finished, hopefully, by the end of next week.

My Crazy Scraps Challenge quilt is nearly there. Hopefully another finish next week.

WiP Wednesday

I forgot to thank Debra of The Quilt Studio for letting me join the Quilt Studio ring. Thanks Debra.

So, Wednesday’s WiP is in the post below. There are a few additions, but I can’t show them at the moment as the batteries in the camera are charging, but they do include a block for Nancy’s Heartstrings. I am really enjoying making them.

I have also been discussing with Tonya making a Wedding Quilt. Tamzin is getting married in July so I thought it would make a nice present.

More tomorrow – I think I am coming down with something. All I have done today is slept and quilted!

Crazy Scraps

Just thought you might like to see the progress being made on this.

I am about a third of the way through the quilting and hoepfully will have it finished by the end of the month.

And this was my birthday treat to myself. She was found in the sale at Maison du Monde. My friend Sue T found them and there were only 3 left. She just had to come home. D.H wanted to light her – Alex and I were furious!
