Sashings

Not a real Update because it is not the 14th of the month. But I am starting to make my sashings... beacuse otherwise I am afraid it will be to much sashings at once.... 121 blocks means 242 sashings and not even counted the conrnerstones with it... so better start now !!! I still haven't decided what kind of colour my cornerstones will be... but I will keep you posted

Embrodery

And the other one is in blue.... I am trying to make an scandinavien room with a lot of light colours .. ofcourse my favourite pink and blue.

Embrodery

I started a while ago with two embroderies... not knowing where to hang them when they finished. But this weekend all came clear and I am now anxious to finish them. This one the pink is already finished....

Civil war dairy Update

It is the 14th of the month: Civil war dairy Quilt Update date... And here they are I have 4 new blocks to show you...

This one I changed a little in the middle it had to be blue as well but I liked the red inside, you probably will not see it when the quilt is finished with so many blocks, but I like to like every block...

Update civil war (4)

Civil war Dairy Update number 4 and an other one with my favorite pinks !! As you know by now I love pink, not only,

but there has to be enough pink in the quilt...

Biscornu

And the biscornu is as finished as cann be. I made the pattern two times one with only flowers and on with 2009 on it. A little project G, M and I are going to make every year. If you want to see a much smaller one... you have to look at bungehuis..very pretty but to small for my eyes, hahahaha

stoffenspektakel

On Sunday I went with G and P to the stoffenspektakel and I bought new fabric for clothes for the girls.... A new challenge I didn't sow clothes for quit some years now... you will see the progress on this blog... the patterns are already made... now I have to cut the fabric....

And what I bought in Alkmaar

In alkmaar I bought the book Material Obsession in the nice bookshop just across the church I saw a lot of quilters found that nice bookshop with a lot of quiltbooks... and I bought all the fabric for a nice new project.... I saw it first in Quiltmania... and then on the show... I couldn't resist... my love for old fabrics, old patterns and new for me round pieces... I am going to piece this by hand... with the machine it means to much trouble. The quilt is called country wheels. The first circle is finished, will be published soon.

Show in Alkmaar 2
