Garden Party 2022

 I did finish the top for my Garden Party Down Under top in December (2022); but the top is not quilted yet. This was a BOM (Block of the Month); for The Quilt Show in 2022. The pattern is Irene Blank. 

Happy 2023!!!

Christmas a la Andalusia

I saw this on a window in Seville Spain in 2021. It starting to look a lot like Christmas again!

Where does time go?

Colour My World

Quilted and bound my version of Colour My World Block of the Month (BOM), by the Wendy Williams. It was a BOM for 2021 at the Quilt Show website.

Hand dyed fabrics by my friend Kate. Quilted using my embroidery machine with flying swallows, a design by Embroidery on line.

 I am calling my quilt: "Birds Eye View of Our World" 😉
 

 Finally finished this quilt. The top was completed in 2013. It is the mystery quilt from Bonnie Hunter called Celtic Mystery. I made it smaller than her top. Mine is 75" square and I quilted on my Bernina 780 using the embroidery hoop and the Gingko leaves pattern from Amelie Scott Jumbo pack 1. It will be a gift for a family member.

Urban Owls my way

My Urban Owl quilt hanging on my dining room wall. 

The pattern is by Wendy Williams of the flyingfish company. But I did modify it a bit. I  changed the pattern of 3 of the corner stars and I also changed the dimensions of the first border around the central block. 

I needle turn appliqued, and machine pieced the top. 

To the back I added a needle turn applique of a branch with a nest, my original design using the leaves and branch at the front for inspiration.

Back corner label. I will hand write on it.
