LA PASSACAGLIA

This is what I have been working on recently.  All hand pieced EPP, fussy cut with mainly Tula Pink material and a few others thrown in from my stash. Every rosette has an animal or insect in it, even whale tails.  The pattern advises to cut the rosettes to make them square, which I don't want to do, so I am piecing a grey border (without star points) and I will be very happy to cut.











I LOVE PINTEREST

I found these one hour baskets on Pinterest and made a couple and colour coordinated all my material in the cupboard.  Then my husband gave me this book shelf and I thought it was perfect for my reproduction material.  I had to make the shape a square instead of rectangle, I think it looks great.




QAYG

Here are a couple more quilt as you go, all have been donated.





DAUGHTERS QAYGO

This QAYG I made for my daughter, she wanted it to auction at her kindy to raise money.  The black and red is the front and the brown is the back.



ANOTHER QAYGO

I really enjoyed this quilt because of the pattern, which I saw one similar at a country show and adapted it to suit QAYG.  I donated this quilt.


QAYGO

This is one of the first quilt as you go quilts I have made. These are about the only quilts I do on my sewing machine at the moment.  They are so quick you can get a quilt totally finished in a week...except for the hand sewing of the back.  Most of these quilts I donate to different charities, very satisfying.



PAINTED TEDDY QUILT

I made this quilt for my sister. It is hand painted, embroidered, pieced and quilted.







TOILE HEXAGON

This quilt has fussy cut hexagons highlighting the main material.  Hand pieced EPP and appliqued.  I decided to put some interest on the back with some left over blocks as well.

TGWT NUMBER 2

This is my second This Goes With That by Sue Daley, all done in William Morris material.  All fussy cut, hand pieced EPP.  I have two more rows to add, which are all pieced and ready to attach.  The backing is pieced and ready to be sandwiched, I just have to stop something else to do it...haha
















DEAR JANE

Once again this was made with a group of ladies from the AQA, which gave us all encouragement to keep going.  This quilt is all hand pieced and quilted, well nearly all quilted, to my embarrassment I have a border to do and it's finished





FIRST FUSSY CUT QUILT

This was my first ever fussy cut quilt.  This is the one that started the obsession.  I have fussy cut nearly everything since.  This quilt was all hand pieced and quilted and loved every minute.
