Black & White Fat Quarters

I'm slowly receiving lots of gorgeous black and white fat quarters for our swap... if you haven't already pop by this post and check it out.


I've been uploading images to the flickr group as I've received them or after they've been sent to me via email... how exciting... 


Have you sent in yours yet? Two weeks to go <3

All Packed Up...

... and ready to go!!!

Rainbow charms will be in the post tomorrow so make sure you pop back and let me know what your going to create :-)

Castle Stairs ~ Top Finished

Well the other day when I was on my roll in getting things done I finished this quilt top, then went to do the back and I was short a few inches in fabric so I now need to put my thinking cap on and decide how I want to finish the back... it's a tough choice

I thought of doing it like a pie with six triangles, might even be able to use the one piece I have here, or a large hexagon in the middle about the size of four or five rows from the front. I'd love to see this one finished so I better decide quick :-)

Spoilt for Choice ~ Pink

Our lovely pink blocks have also arrived today... YAY!!!


We are spoilt for choice here with six options, thankfully I've received all your answers to which ones you prefer {where options were give} so I'll be dividing these up and adding them to the piles too.

Such a productive day...

I've had such a productive day today. I finished the quilt top for the quilt I started yesterday and now I'm straight line quilting my lots of bugs quilt. I was so nervous to do it and I still am... but I've decided not to judge till its finished. I've re basted it twice today as the last time I picked up this quilt the back didn't look so good. Well fingers crossed!

Blue & Purple :-)

It's so exciting, another two colours have been completed on our journey to create the rainbow.


I've received all of the purple charms

Start of a new quilt

I decided to start another project. This quilt grabbed my attention looking for something else. I'm hoping I'll be able to complete the top without too many issues as the person who wrote the tutorial had problems on one of hers. Fingers crossed :-)
