Time Flies....

.... when you're sewing!

Anyone else noticed that March appears to have turned up pretty sharpish?? One minute we were only half way through February & the next we're into the 3rd month of the year already.

Thought I'd just share with you some of the projects I was working on in February.

First up is Hananh's quilt.  I originally started this quilt on a days workshop with Carolyn Forster at Thread Bear.  It's a pretty basic disappearing 9-patch, also known as Patience Corner.  The quilt is backed in pink fleece, ditch quilting & I have just the binding to complete.



Next up is Crayon Rolls.  In total this month I've made about 25 of these & I've sold an awful lot of those 25 too.  They hold 16 crayons & come complete with the crayons. I still have some of them available to purchase which you can do through my Crafters Barn online shop.



Everything else I've been doing in cutting fabric & prep work for other quilts & I don't have photos of any of it so hopefully they'll all be projects to share with you over the next few weeks.

Happy stitching :)

Busy... Busy... Busy...

Wow... February already... the last week appears to have flown by.  I've been busy sewing & cross stitching & more sewing & oh yeah... more sewing.

Winding Ways block.
This will most likely end as a cushion cover, love the fabrics.




 Some lovely Robert Kaufman fabric that arrived in the post today.
It's a gift from another crafty sewing friend.
It's soooooo lovely, I can't wait to find a project for it :)




 New York Beauty blocks.
More foundation piecing middles for my NYB blocks.

Lots & lots more sewing to be done at the moment, hope to post again soon.

Happy stitching :)
