Two more finishes.

The labels are on.

Binding sewn down. 

This quilt is ready to be parcelled off to a proud grandma to be. 

With the second quilt being sent off to a great Aunty. 

I know they are very narrow and won't be following these measurement again. 

Happy news.

Candice my eldest who left home at 17 has retuned home after being out on her own 2 years. 

I am pleased she is home and won't take it for granted that she is living with is again as who knows how long before she up and leaves again. 

After helping her unpack her car and buying some more cube shelves from Bunnings to store her clothes in. 

I spent the afternoon machine quilting the baby quilt. 

I am happy with the result and only have to sew down the binding. 

A great weekend. 

FNWF leading into Saturday

Friday night I worked more on my second baby quilt. 

Saturday saw me prepare these for quilting. 

I am just going to stitch in the ditch this one

Quilt top finished.

Look what I finished tonight. I am so in love with it.

 Finished it off with my new machine. A Husqvarna, compact to travel with me when I go away. 

Now to make a second top for another baby boy who was born yesterday. 

When they are both done I will quilt them 

Sewing group

Tonight I went to sewing group. Well I nearly finished the centre of the quilt. I have to remove a blue set and add a red one as it was big enough. 

Now to cut some white and blue borders.

I also bought some of the new Xmas range. 

 

Oops there is a shadow. Might show more when I start to put it together 

New sewing friends

All I can say is last night was a success. 

The group of ladies were welcoming and extremely talented, not just in the area of patchwork but also in their career. They are all nurses. 

I started sewing my baby quilt. 

Two sets together. 7 more to go. 

I am loving this one. But first things first I need finalise some swaps gifts. 

Sending dates are approaching quickly 

New sewing group

Tomorrow I am going to be joining a new group of ladies for an evening of sewing. 

I am going to take along my baby quilt. 

 To sew together. 

I am adding s red row upon request from the grandmother, a white border than a blue and bind with white. 

I have now had a request for a second quilt but I would live to use these fabrics. 

I have to make a row and see of the great Aunty loves it
