Snow and freezing temperatures in july

Wow July already, I have been gently reminded I have not been posting...  But I have been busy in the sewing room... This post has lots of photos..

More progress to the hexagon QAL the end is in sight

Pickles are finished .. Ready for the background blocks...

I have a returned appliqué quilt finally quilted... Ready for binding

Also a returned Dresden plate quilt binding on ready to sew down...

The lorax quilt all bound and hung

Some quilting started myself on the Xmas wall hanging by Natalie Bird

Just to prove I have started securing the blocks..... What to do next will pose more of a challenge

A pineapple cushion... This will look good with the Dresden plate quilt ...

I had a request for dr Seuss cushions for my DD 1the teacher, so here is what was quickly whipped up

For all those mums out there coping with school holiday woes.  A bit of sewing goes a long way.. But as my DD 3 told me remember mum that STRESSED is Desserts spelt backward...  So go for a dessert she tells me.  Perhaps that is because it is her favourite meal of the day.

So happy school holidays for all those in New Zealand.

Value Proposition QAL

This blog was to be done a week ago, however life has taken over and I thought tonight after the Xmas Tree was put up it was time to get another blog done!

Xmas Tree 2014

This QAL is so much fun,  I have put the blocks I have completed up on the design wall.  sadly I have had to put aside for the last week, too much secret sewing.... and activities for school and events..

I am working on the blocks 15 and 16... visit Karens blog here
