Background Fill
I have been making some practise blocks to improve
my quilting skills.
This is my first attempt at Paisley.
What I've been doing
These are some quilts I have worked on recently
Clam Shells
Edge to Edge Meander
The back of the quilt above.
A lovely Edge to Edge Floral
The border around this oriental quilt was purple
and gold. It is beautiful. I love purple.
Quilted with a free motion edge to edge Meander.
Where have I been?
I can't believe it has been so long since I posted on my blog! My life seems to have become very busy.
I will endeavour to post on a more regular basis.
My grand daughter Tilley is now four months old. She is adorable.

Shirt quilt
This quilt top was made from men's shirts all
in the same toning with white added to join
the fabrics.
It was quilted with a medium free motion stipple.
Pretty quilt for a young lady
This quilt was fun and bright and was made
for a teenager. What a lucky girl.
It was backed with red fleecy and quilted with
a big stipple to keep it soft and cuddly.
It's a girl!
My first grandchild, Tilley Ann was born on the 22nd May 2012
She weighed 6 1/2 pounds and 18" long.
She is the first child to my son Lee and his wife Shelley.
We are very proud and excited!
