Today I visited a friends house for a sewing day. We were both working on Christmas quilts. I’m very pleased with my progress as I managed to complete a further 9 blocks for my Tula 100 quilt. That puts me at a total of 25 blocks completed.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #111111; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.9950008392334px; margin-bottom: 1.615em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
My fabric choice for the 100 blocks is Joy by Kate Spain.</div>

<br />
This weekend I have moved my blog. I've gone from blogspot over to Wordpress. All my content has gone with me & I'm slowly making it home. It'll be somewhere that I can have lots of different things all in the same place, such as my cross stitch, quilting, photos, twins, Lisa G Creations & Love Fabric.<br />
<br />
I hope you'll come join me.<br />

My first completed block of the new year. Number seven block in my On Point Sampler is called Starlight Geese. I'm not a fan of flying geese, mainly because I did a whole quilt border in them for my first quilt, BUT this was a breeze. Flying geese in foundation piecing.... LOVE them :)<br />

<br />
Just a couple of hours into the day I received an email from the school reminding me it was pirate dress up day the following day. It was nice to get the reminder, even more so because it was the first I'd heard of it!<br />
<br />
We have one pirate outfit in the house & that belongs to the monkey, what was I going to do for little Moo? What on earth does a girl pirate wear?? Oh I know... the same as a boy pirate only with a bit of bling :)<br />
<br />
First up I need a white shirt with a bit of a ruffle. A rummage around her wardrobe came up with a plain white t-shirt. Now to add the ruffle. Best I could find for this was a piece of lace (left over from some wedding ring cushions I made!). Few pins & a bit of sewing & the shirt is complete.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uH-y8eB-Aqs/UOyRESsaI2I/AAAAAAAAC30/gEQvytBmuqA/s1600/Pirate+%25284%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uH-y8eB-Aqs/UOyRESsaI2I/AAAAAAAAC30/gEQvytBmuqA/s320/Pirate+%25284%2529.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Pirate Shirt - T-shirt & Lace</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
Next up, a jacket of some discription. First of all I was trying to find a long t-shirt in either plain red or black. Between the two of them, neither twin has either, can you believe it??? Time to re-think. This time I raided the monkeys wardrobe & found a waistcoat.... bonus... that will do. <br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qKpQTtN5LKA/UOyRDatm3LI/AAAAAAAAC3o/BPbCgkX48FQ/s1600/Pirate+%25281%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-qKpQTtN5LKA/UOyRDatm3LI/AAAAAAAAC3o/BPbCgkX48FQ/s320/Pirate+%25281%2529.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Waistcoat - straight out the boys wardrobe</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
Downstairs to raid the bag of Strictly fabrics (yes that would be all things chiffon & sequiney from Strictly Come Dancing!). Found some perfect red fabric with a bit of bling. The day was rapidly getting away from me here to it was time to work fast. I cut out, very roughly I might add, some of the red to match the front panels of the waistcoat.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jM6CXle0A04/UOyRDoSRM1I/AAAAAAAAC3s/spAzubuwpeQ/s1600/Pirate+%25282%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jM6CXle0A04/UOyRDoSRM1I/AAAAAAAAC3s/spAzubuwpeQ/s320/Pirate+%25282%2529.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Rough cut panels for waistcoat front</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
Next up, I appliqued the red straight on to the front of the waistcoat. I used red thread on top & black thread on the bobbin. Again, this was done very quickly with not an awful lot of care going into turning & pinning the edges under (ooops!).<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MoMQpyCGXzc/UOyRD1d3K9I/AAAAAAAAC3w/28KW4BbjmMo/s1600/Pirate+%25283%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MoMQpyCGXzc/UOyRD1d3K9I/AAAAAAAAC3w/28KW4BbjmMo/s320/Pirate+%25283%2529.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Waistcoat complete</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
With the waistcoat now complete it was just accessories to go. I know for a fact that we have two pirate eye patches kicking about our house..... do you think I could find one of them??? nope... nothing. Time to whip up a couple of eye patches. Back to the strictly bag where I knew i'd seen a bit of black velvet. This was just long enough to cut into strips & cut a little patch for the eyes. Tiny bit of elastic on the back to join the two sides meant that I could be sure they wouldn't just slip straight off. Of course the girl one had to match her waistcoat :)<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Drb8JTi2Tvk/UOyREjZs42I/AAAAAAAAC38/_vzsEIm6vHw/s1600/Pirate+%25285%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Drb8JTi2Tvk/UOyREjZs42I/AAAAAAAAC38/_vzsEIm6vHw/s320/Pirate+%25285%2529.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Girl & Boy Pirate Eye Patches</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
Last up was some type of head gear. Easy one, a piece of stretchy chiffon in bright red & cut into a large triangle would make a perfect bandana.<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

First up is my Christmas Past cross stitch. As you can see I didn't get it completed for Christmas but I'm still enjoying stitching it in the evenings so it'll remain an ongoing project.<br />

Next up is my Tula Pink sampler. I'm up to block six out of twelve. This one made my head hurt a bit trying to get the foundations the right way around & I had a couple of hiccups along the way but look.... it turned out fine in the end :)<br />

After spending several days in bed & shipping the twins off to Grandmas over night I would say that I'm feeling about 85% now. Not quite 100% but getting there. <br />
<br />
I leave you with a photo of my completed fabric door wreath & wish you all a very Merry Christmas.<br />

<br />
I've started a nice new Christmas design from <a href="http://www.hinzeit.com/" target="_blank">Hinzeit</a> called Charmed Christmas Past. I've had this chart all kitted up in my stash for *ahem* a while!!! I'm stitching for 1-2 hours an evenings once the children are in bed. So here's my progress so far:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Hinzeit - Charmed Christmas Past</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
It would be nice to have it completed in time for Christmas but I'm not concerned if it isn't, I'm just enjoying the stitching.<br />
<br />
Just in case you are wondering about this weeks <a href="http://www.lisa-iris.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/silent-sunday.html" target="_blank">Silent Sunday</a> post, both of the twins were poorly over the weekend & we were going through liquid Nurofen like it was going out of fashion. Thankfully one of them is back to normal with just a cough but the other has developed tonsilitis so has been off school.<br />
<br />
Happy stitching :)<br />

It's been a relaxing way to spend an hour each evening while catching up on some TV. After finishing the stitching I decided to make it into a mini wall hanging. The <a href="http://domesticgoddesque.com/" target="_blank">birthday girl</a> will soon be having a dedicated craft room & I thought it could be a perfect addition to the wall :)<br />

I realised that the photo I uploaded of the first block was square on & as the sampler is going to be On Point I thought it would be better to take the photos on point. Hopefully you'll get an idea of how the blocks will look in situ.<br />

<br />
I bought <a href="http://www.lisa-iris.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/in-love-with-prince-charming.html" target="_blank">these</a> for a sampler project & today I made my first block. All of the blocks are foundation pieced. I've also decided to do the background of all my blocks in a darker teal colour rather than a traditional light colour. Let me know what you think?<br />

A ticket to <a href="http://www.alexandrapalace.com/whats-on/the-knitting-stitching-show/#.UHfz7W_A_aI" target="_blank">The Knitting & Stitching Show at Alexandra Palace</a> from my good friend Franney of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/franneymakes?fref=ts" target="_blank">Franney Makes</a>. We met up at London Victoria station & traveled together to Ally Pally, both very excited to see what this years show has in store for us.<br />
<br />
I had some birthday money sent to me in advance from my brother & sister-in-law. They knew I was heading to the show so very kindly allowed me some pennies to shop with while I was there.<br />
<br />
We had a fabulous time at the show, it's become an annual pilgrimage for us & we spend the year looking forward to it. We also met up with two other lovely friends while we were there & catching up at the end of the day in the bar was a welcome rest.<br />
<br />
Here's what I came back with this year.<br />

Both of these have been a work in progress for this year & today they were on display at my quilt groups exhibition & I love them both.<br />
<br />
The first is Notting Hill Meets New York. Named because the fabric range is called Notting Hill & the block used is New York Beauty. This quilt was started in January at the planning phase, final quilting took place in September.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Notting Hill Meets New York</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
The second is Red & White Waterwheel. The waterwheel blocks were made by my quilt group & we had a raffle which I won. Then it was down to me how I completed a quilt using these blocks. I found that for a couple of years I've been collecting red & white fabric cuts, strips & charms. I decided that this would be the perfect project to use them, as the strips I have are made of so many different shades & patterns of red that they'd go brilliantly with the mixture of the waterwheels.<br />

<br />When I was at Festival of Quilts back in August I was lucky enough to meet her & she signed a copy of her book for me. I totally fell in love with almost all of her fabric ranges & especially Prince Charming. It was then that I decided I wanted to use the range for this years college project.<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Tula Pink & Lisa G</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
This years college project for me is an on-point sampler where the blocks are made using foundation piecing. I had an image of this project on my mobile phone & once I'd decided to use the Prince Charming range I went back to Tula & asked her opinions on the fabric choice, possible back ground colours & connecting blocks. I can't wait to get started :)<br />

Most of my summer was taken up with entertaining the twins 24/7 & very little else, least of all sewing in any way, shape & form.<br />
<br />
Our adorable children have now started school & are in Reception year. They are in different classes so not only are they getting used to going to school everyday & the challenges that come with it, they are also getting used to being apart from each other for a large portion of the day. They still see each other at breaks, play time & lunch time so hopefully it'll be a positive experience for them both.<br />

As you can imagine, not an awful lot of sewing or stitching has been taking place over the last 6 weeks. I did managed to take some Cross Stitch on our holiday, I even managed to finish a piece too :)<br />
<br />
First up is Lizzie*Kate - Normal Is Just A Setting On The Washer. This was started on 4th January 2012. The first pictures shows my progress when at the start of my holiday & the second picture shows it completed.<br />

<br />
<br />
Next up is Lizzie*Kate - Boo Club!. Again the first picture is progress at the start of our holiday & the second is progress at the end of the holiday. I'm totally unsure if this will be complete by Halloween of this year but you never know!<br />

<br />
Another busy couple of weeks ahead while we prepare for the twins to start school & after that it'll be business as usual & the sewing frenzy will begin.<br />
<br />
Don't forget that you can keep up-to-date with what I'm doing on my Facebook page too, I'm there almost every day (between playing with dolls houses, cars, lego & playing referee!) with little snippets of sewing, cross stitching, quilting, selling, fabric & all the fun stuff.<br />

This is the commission quilt I'm making using the lovely Pom Pom De Paris range of fabrics by French General for Moda. <span style="background-color: white;">With the twins no longer at nursery my sewing time is quite limited so anything I can get done is a bonus.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;">This week I completed the log cabin blocks & with the assistance of friend Franney we managed to find a layout that I liked. The blocks were all sewn together & here is the result:</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1z1pNl0ro2I/UA8C-IxuuCI/AAAAAAAACfI/kGCmCVgXCD8/s1600/Log+Cabin+Quilt+-+Lisa+G+Creations.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1z1pNl0ro2I/UA8C-IxuuCI/AAAAAAAACfI/kGCmCVgXCD8/s320/Log+Cabin+Quilt+-+Lisa+G+Creations.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
I just have the borders to add now & that will be the top complete. Not sure exactly when that will happen but I'll let you know when it does.<br />
<br />
Just in case you want to see more of what can be achieved with this lovely fabric you can pop over to <a href="https://www.facebook.com/franneymakes">Franney Makes</a> facebook page where she's just posted pictures of a lovely Kindle Cosy.<br />

Friday I took it to the twins nursery & handed it over as a gift for them from Hannah & Robert. All were pleased with it & shocked that a) I'd made it myself & b) that I could bare to part with it.<br />
<br />
I hope future children at the nursery will have fun with it.<br />

I have lots to share but am slightly pushed for time at the moment so just a couple of pictures from the Sandown National Quilt Championships.<br />

The next is the quilt that won Championship quilt at the show. It's a pretty impressive quilt, one piece of fabric & long arm quilted. This quilt has received mixed reactions. Let me know what you think.<br />
