A couple more project pouches have made their way into the collection...
I had this very very dodgy small quilt top in the box of random orphans...the piecing is super dodgy but for the back of a project pouch that is just for me, who cares and it gets it made into a something...
A while back, while zooming, Janice mentioned that mini charm packs (2 1/2" squares) are perfect for 1" hexies...mmm I had another mini charm pack on the shelf and I couldn't resist...all the hexies were made and sewn together into a fabric then what? Oh well, let's have another project pouch...
A long time half done project was cleaned up...Fig 'n Berry Creations Blitzens Tree was a project for a stitching day held by Stawell Craft Shop a few years ago...I never wanted to make the exact design of the wall hanging and had cherry picked elements, making one element twice in two different colours...and one reindeer...
I have absolutely no idea what my original plan was so let's just get it done and dusted into something...a small quilt/table mat...finished, washed and in the cupboard for Christmas...
At quilting group it was V's turn for Friendship Quilt blocks...she provided the background fabric and as her heritage is Dutch asked for anything with tulips...any technique or colours...she did say what she thought she'd use for sashing etc so I took that into account...but I became obsessed with "it has to have a windmill"...
This is design number goodness knows...I searched the interweb for tulip and windmill shapes/designs but the idea in my head was over complicated, and after I saw the blocks that were being handed to her by other members I knew I had to simplify to fit in with those...many attempts at drawing a simplified design went into the bin! Finally I settled on this one...all that mattered was she was happy...I quite like it myself as well...small blanket stitched tulips with back-stitched detail to make petals...
Happy Stitching...
