Quilting for Dorothy, Kerry & Linda

Hello 2024!

It's February & I'm only just geared up ready for my first blog post of the year.

You may remember my last post (20th December) I shared seven of my customer Dorothy's quilts from a pile of ten she had sent for quilting. Dorothy received the seven quilts I managed to get quilted before I finished for the year. And now I have recently finished the other three & she has had them delivered (thanks NZPost).

There's some other customer quilts too & some holiday photos.

I found a good place for my knitting pattern while travelling.

 

On one of our biking trips I saw this amazing HUGE rock,
I asked hubby if he could bring it home for the garden.......he tried! 😄

I finished another quilt for my SHOP - it's bold & bright, I'm hoping someone will love it!

Before I melt in the Northland summer heat & humidity
