Another quilt for another baby.

This quilt was commissioned by a friend, the mother asked that the child's name and birthdae be included.

A sweet quilt for a baby girl

This is another quilt I made for a baby, now born,  at church.  The moather asked for a mauve quilt, so here it is.  I will give it to her this Sunday.The sun coming through the lemon tree is spoiling the picture.

Cute!!!

I had some doggie fabric over so I made a bag for a friend who is doggie mad.  It is an easier pattern than others I have tried so I will make more in different colours.  I just love the picture with the blue background!

Retail therapy

A few weeks ago, I bought  18 Bali fat quarters from Keepsake quilting.  I also  bought 200 X 4" charms, my third pack and a few haby items.  Last year I bought 2 packs of die cut diamonds.   I don't know what I'll do with the small charms yet but I'm  still thinking.  I used to buy Bali hearts to make  Caring Heart blocks but they are not on the catalogue any more.  The swing seat is where I'll be having lunch from now on, with the orange tree on my right and the lemon tree on my left behind me.

Holly Hobby

Here are the two dolls someone gave me.  I cut them out,  sewed up the seams and filled them with toyfill.  I hope this little girl is happy with them.  Our extended family is having Christmas day together,  I'm wondering if I should make a cloth doll as I had intended before I came across this in my stash.

A visit

This is Eirto, just 4 months old.  He brought his family to visit us before Christmas as they are all going to Japan for a few weeks.  His mum took this photo, he sat on his dad's lap and 'talked' to me  and smiled at me all through lunch time.  Dad and Mum  put him down for a nap but he was not having that.  Casey was very interested in this new person, but Eirto was not impressed, not scared, just not interested!!

Medallion Round Robin 2009

It's home!!   I love it!!! Pity it is so windy, I couldn't wait for tomorrow when the weather  may be calmer.
During this year various Forum ladies have been doing a border each month on my Hummingbird quilt.  There were quite a few of us and  each of us worked on 10 quilts. we have all  been very excited as our quilts finally came 'home'.
