Another Log Cabin & a Gail Pan stitchery




Di has finished her log cabin quilt, started at a class at The Country Yard & finished a several 'Stitch & Chat' days at the shop. Di gave me free range to do as I please. I love how Di's fabric choice has given this traditional quilt a modern twist.
Busy & black fabrics are always difficult to photograph, but hopefully if you click on the photo's you will see what quilting I did.
I used Madeira poly neon threads over black cotton batting.


Because Di had given me free range, apparently there was some betting going on between Di & some of the girls that there would most certainly be feathers!
A bit of a modern funked up feather on the border though!



And one of the back..............................................................


Do you remember Barbara's one? How about Jocielin's? Or Kerryn's?

Thanks Di!!!!

Next a little runner quilted up for a shop sample. This is a Gail Pan design, using one of Lynette Anderson's new fabric's & a yummy Cottage Garden thread. It is heavenly at work surrounded by the complete full range of the fabulous threads!!


Kits & patterns are available from The Country Yard!!

I hope everyone is having a productive week, mine has been full on, with everything happening at once! Our beloved cat Brian hasn't come home for several days, which is very out of character for him.........we miss him!

 Here he is sitting behind Simon.

  3. Surprising to see Di chose black/white and some yellowfor the quilt! Love your feathers, and the back is also worth showing on a bed!
    Love the stitchery and fabric. I didn't know Lynette has her own threads, that makes it complete.
    I hope Brian comes back soon, I'm sorry for you!
    Love, Cisca

  4. There is definately something very stunning about black & white together. I just adore that table runner Leeanne. So very Sorry to hear Brian has not returned yet ... he is a lovely looking cat, him & his brother look like twins. I hope he just pops up on the weekend, looking like he has been on an "adventure". x0x

  8. I'm looking forward to seeing Di's quilt 'in the flesh', Leeanne. And I'm hoping that by now, Brian has come home and settled himself down on a comfy cushion or quilt somewhere :-)
