my sewing room, its about 13' x 18'....you asked

A Block! A Block!

I can't believe it, I've actually cut a block out, and I even started to stitch it last night. I'm pretty happy with the colours. I haven't picked the whole quilt out, I never do that. I just like to see where things develop.
Don't worry, there's other colours going over the top of that big dark vase, it needs breaking up.

I've decided that I'm going to have a designing holiday over the Christmas break and let myself play with all the half started things I want to play with, like this quilt and a few others I've had sitting around for a while, so you should be hearing from me a little more often after December 15!

If anyone is still interested in my tweezer scissors that I use for applique, I managed to source some in Houston and they are being delivered. I don't know how much yet, but I think about $12. If you're interested just send me an email!

Fabrics chosen

As I am only starting in 2011, January, nothing is sure. But one thing is: I am doing this wonderful quilt on black. I love the way colours 'pop' on black. Here is a picture of the fabrics I am going to work with. I might add something, I might skip something, but probably this is it!

Finally!

Hi! This is my first post but I have been enjoying this blog for several months. I started doing the Hearts and Flowers quilt and finally finished the center block. I am having a bit of trouble getting the scallops to line up but it has been fun quilt so far.

Hi fellow addicts,

Had a great shopping spree in the States and found some wonderful Kaffee fabric. Can't wait to get started on this fantastic quilt. I'll have to slow down a bit because I managed to break my foot the day after coming home, fell down 2 steps! And since all my sewing stuff is upstairs, including the computer I'll have to take it easy. I love the blue cloudy fabric that I bought for my background material. Wish we luck and hopefully Ill be able to get started soon.
