My creative space

My niece turns 14 today.

And a girl needs a bag. Am I right?

I recently purchased a fat quarter pack of Kumari Garden by Deena Designs in the Gem colourway.
It's a gorgeous bright collection that is not too heavy on the floral. (My niece is not a fan of the floral).

With pockets inside and out and a nice long strap, I'm hoping this messenger style bag will get plenty of use.

Happy birthday Ruby!!

Love Andi xx

My creative space (AKA the fancy shmancy binding quilt)

After my basting efforts earlier this week, I've been a busy little bee, and finished quilting and binding .... the Beehive quilt.

Thank you so much to everyone in the Bee for your gorgeous blocks. They've come together rather well, I think!!

Quilted in wavy lines.

With a thrifted sheet on the back. (I couldn't believe my luck when I found it. The colour is PERFECT!!)

Fabrics are mostly from my scrap bin and the stashes of my 12 fellow Beehivers. Truly a communal project!!

And the fancy shmancy binding? I followed Trisha's excellent tutorial on how to bind a quilt so that it looks like it has piping (but doesn't really).

Such a clever idea with a very effective end result!

I'll be trying that one again for sure!!

You can find more creative spaces over at the lovely Kirsty's.

Have a stitchin' day.

My creative space.

A while back a friend GAVE me some coveted Flea Market Fancy fabrics .... just because.


These acts of generosity deserve a little something in return.

Thanks Clair for being just very lovely!!

My creative space.

My creative space today is squeezed in somewhere between swimming lessons, school expos and general domestic diva-ness.
I'm going to the 3rd week (of 8) of an upholstery course.

I'll be turning this ...

... into something rather fabulous featuring this ...

More creative spaces can be found here.

Have a fabulous Thursday.
