This extra thick quilt I made for my only 'grandaughter' who lives in Canada, while she was bedridden with a broken ankle the poor darling. I forgot to take a photo before I sent it, and they are not able to get one either as she never gets off it :) The legs all healed now, but she still loves her blankie.
The centre squares are three beautiful colored Australian Aboriginal designs.

I got so sidetracked with life for a lot of months, but I'm trying to get back on track again

This quilt was made for a dear friend of mine...who only likes black and crosses. Had to get some contrast in there :) The sun makes some of the black look brown though

Wow, its been such a long time between visits. Have finally got back into the sewing room to make some cushion covers for my new burgundy lounge. I have missed sitting in front of the machine and am going to have get the motivation fired up again.
I made covers for three 64 x64 cushions.

How Time Flies
Can't believe it has been a month since my last post (and unfortunately my last bag) really have to get stuck in. The only thing keeping me out of my sewing room is the heat, I really must invest in an aircon.
I have been reading heaps of sewing books though, and copying some of my sisters patterns, so am not totally idle, or is that just me trying to justify my idleness.....

Two More Floppy Hobos
I didn't work today, so had some spare time on my hands. I have a bit of different satiny type materials that just never seems to get smaller..... so I decided to make some more floppy hobos.
I really need to go do some housework now, it has been sadly neglected over the last few days :)

Bag for Sis
What a lovely day it was today at my sisters, after the hour drive there....
Aircon on, lunch with Sophia and my niece, cut out three bags, then she said she wanted a bag made out of a silk kimono so we cut that out as well, after giving her the quickest lesson ever in building a website.
Then another hour drive home, its great thinking and planning time :) Did a quick bit of pruning in the gardening for half an hour then went and made Sophia's bag. I couldn't quite get the handle right as she didn't want any interfacing in it, hopefully she will still be happy with it
