ELENOR JEAN

The beginning, I got both Elenor Jean and Dear Prudence books from Linda White and had a very hard time deciding which one to do, finally decided on Elenor.  So with the help of some friends at Somerset, the colours have sort of been chosen, with a few from my stash thrown in.


HEXAGON PROJECT BAG

This week I have been making a bag to put my Elenor Jean hexie pieces into as I work on this long term project.  Quite happy with how the bag has turned out.  Although if I make another one, I think I would do a couple of things different.

NEW ADDICTION

Just got a 3/8" hexagon template and papers to have a play on the weekend.  I think I am hooked.  Also purchased a book on Dear Prudence and Elenor Jean, this maybe my next long term project...:-)







LUCY BOSTON FINISHED PIECING

I am very happy how this quilt has turned out, especially the border.  I have to get some backing and then I will get it basted ready for me to hand quilt, big job, big quilt...:-)

LUCY BOSTON UPDATE

Getting very excited, just a few more blocks and Lucy will be finished.  I am hoping to get her machine basted so I can hand quilt it.  I love the outside border, I think it pulls all the colours together.

LA PASSACAGLIA

I have been working on the border of my La Pass quilt, I am wanting to piece the outside border.  Much happier cutting that instead of those precious points.

BACKING FOR TGWT NUMBER ONE

This is what I have been working on today.  I am wanting to add some interest to the back of my quilts, so here are some of the blocks I have made.






FUSSY CUT SCRAPPY

This is a recent quilt that I have finished and basted, waiting to be hand quilted.  All handpieced EPP.











LUCY BOSTON CLOSUPS















LUCY BOSTON

This is a quilt I am currently working on.  All the blocks are hand pieced EPP and fussy cut, they are all finished and put together and at the moment I am working on the border.  This quilt is so big, I think I will have to get it professionally basted so that I can hand quilt it. I am sorry about the first picture, it was taken in the evening and the colour is all wrong.
