Pamper day

This is the table Anna put my quilts on, she didn't spread them out, but most of the ladies present  did later.

Stash-Buster

I had a shoe-box full of batiks and needed another quilt for my Pamper Day stall, so I found this pattern in a recent American Patchwork and Quilting magazine.  This was the alternate colourway.  It fits a single bed and may be big enough to be a topper for a double bed.  It didn't take long to make, about 3 weeks in all.

Caring Hearts

I put this top together from Caring Hearts received over the past few years.  On the Forum we send members a pack of  8 heart-blocks for occasions when members are feeling sad for whatever reason, or when they have something wonderful to celebrate.

Sampler Quilt 2010

Here is the sampler quilt completed during 2010.  The program was run by a co-ordinator in an online Forum. 

At last

Drum Roll please.
At last it is finished.  So simple and it took 2 years of dithering about how to do it. Unfortunately it is a little short for a single bed when  the new owner grows up.  But for now it is big enough for a bed-topper and later he can use it as a throw.   There are tiny footballs sewn in the quilting and scattered over the quilt.

Some years ago I tried making some bags.  This is the only one which survived because I threw the others out.  I found this one in a cupboard I hadn't looked in for months, all I had to do was add the handles.  I had made an autumn wall-hanging for someone on the Forum and these fabrics were leftover. And now I've lost the pattern. 

Presents!

This is what Grandma and Grandpa gave me, it plays music.  I knew straight away how to play it.  They also gave me some books for reading on the plane.
