I am really really enjoying making quilts and laundry bags for Aussie Hero ! One more set ready to be sent off!
This quilt pattern is great, and can be found here on the Aussie hero blog. No seams to match!
But as usual, I start off new quilting endeavours with the idea of "using the stash".... but end up going on new fabric searches, my mission now is finding Australiana and "gender neutral" fabrics....
Maybe I should look for more ways to use up my dozens of florals and kiddie prints!
... and proudly hanging in the breeze on Richard's Hills Hoist.
So, one UFO finished, and not too bad, it took 6 months of being obsessed with it: "just 1 more block before dinner", etc... then making a square foot of room on the dinner table to accomodate meals, which, had Richard not been there to provide, would have been second priority... I may have lost a few kg's though!
Now for once I cant wait for the warmer nights, to whip off the thick quilt and have this one through summer.
Current UFO's: a paperpieced boat quilt for a special little boy, the scrappy postage stamp picninc rug, the batik charm squares one, and a few more Aussie Heroes quilts and laundry bags!
Now off to Calowera to dog/cat/horse/rabbit/chook sit for a few days while DD is away at a show, but the sewing machine is in the car!
