New Starts

Lots of orange sewing last week to finish making "Sugar Plums" blocks.


Felt the need to work with some other colours so made a few "Summertime" blocks - I love these FigTree & Co "Coney Island" fabrics and decided to make the quilt larger so cut more fabrics.


I need a couple of smaller quilts to give away and have been inspired by some quilts I saw on Instagram:  "Checkerboard" designed by Lori Holt


and this layout for Jacob's Ladder blocks



My stash of Me and My Sister fabrics is perfect to use up in the fun designs.  I have one more design in mind using a charm pack of Me and My Sister's "Frolic" fabrics.

Weekend plans changed at the last minute and it turned out to be a fun weekend with little sweetheart staying over on Saturday night along with Jenni and Kurt, then Sunday lunch at a first birthday party followed by "Mama Mia" with Mum - I loved the movie (had tears streaming down my face from start to finish - I'm such a sook).  Great choreography and lots of fun. I'm looking forward to some Gulli-time on Friday.
