Arty, practical & freebies!

Hi all, I hope your days are happy & rewarding. I am pleased you made the time to stop in to say hi! Well, some of you don't say hi, you just pop in for a look about & leave. Either way it nice to have you here.

Customer quilt...................................(sorry for the bad photo's, we have had wild weather here, so it had to be photo's inside, because it just doesn't work on the washing line outside!)

Friend's of Gaye wanted her to make them a quilt, they chose a quilt designed by Suzanne Wray.
This quilt is large, measuring 95"x 95", when I phoned Gaye to tell her I had finished quilting, she asked if it did my head in?!! No I said, why? She told me she attempted the quilting herself but it did her head in!
Using three different variegated threads by Gunold I created a flowing water effect & rambling flowers, feathers & swirls etc.

I managed to get this & the following photo's on an angle on my sofa, so they are reasonable.

Next is something I was surprised at how quickly these whipped up. My next  installment fro the 'Sewing Essentials Project' from The Country Yard. Some handy pouches.

The smallest pouch measures only 5 1/2" x 3", the larger one : 7 1/2" x 4".

Karen over at 'Laugh your self into Stitches' is having a giveaway, please pop on over to see!
I was lucky to be gifted the wonderful patterns Karen design's, they are really lovely!!

P.S.......Karen is a real sweet person too ;-)
