I haven't made myself a quilt in a lot of years so I thought I would start with a centre and make it grow. I started organising the fabrics for my quilt a few years ago at the Sydney Craft Fair and I think I might have been wearing sunglasses at the time. I mean they are bright.... even for me......
But I will keep sewing it as I do like the effect... What do you think????
I started with the peacock fabric and these are what I chose.
Have a lovely day

Naughty Lists
I thought I would get your attention...
I made a Christmas wall hanging for the Tangled Web Quilters Christmas Swap ( thats a mouthful) and loved doing it so I made 2 more for my sons and their partners.
I found this pattern in A Christmas Story By Anni Downs Hatched and Patched....and I changed it a little so hopefully she would like the result....
I made one traditionally for Nick and Tegan, that they sadly never received it, somewhere lost in the post but I will redo it so they have one for next year and one for Glenn and Sarah that was more contemporary. As they had a black christmas tree and blue/silver decorations, so it took a bit of thought but hopefully they liked the result.
Hopefully I will be more productive and have something to show you, Thank you for reading my blog and ramblings.......
Have a lovely Day and Enjoy it all :-)
