Friday Flaunt


One of the online groups I belong to has a Friday Flaunt to show what you have been up to during the week. So I will see how I go after having to pack up my quilting room as its turned back into a bedroom. I probably have enough fabric for a year of flaunting.
The TV programme packed to the rafters has nothing on us.

Anyway this was an easy quilt using Kaffe Fassett blues made for friend who has decided to try apartment living she says she is going to read in the afternoons so I thought she needs a quilt to snuggle up with too. And I quilted it myself on a friends long arm machine this is my first go on her machine certainly a lot to remember. I will have forgotten what to do the next time I want to use the machine

Since I had to be very restrained while away I couldn't resist these patterns both by Bronwyn Hayes from www.fionamarie.com. I also signed up for the Global Christmas Shop Fiona is running.

I think a lot of my friends will be getting the hot pads for xmas.

And I have been eyeing up this BOM for a while. Fiona offers this as a pattern only BOM so means I can use my stash for fabric. (Maybe)

As you know I haven't posted for quite a while, no reasons really just been busy doing other things. But am back on top of things and will post more often.
These are the latest 2 quilts I have finished the top one Noahs Ark is for a baby, supposed to have been a girl but was a beautiful little boy. I made the bottom one for the big brother he has taken a liking for my hubby which of course Bob is very flattered. The pattern is a freebie online from Fat Cat patterns. We are so lucky that Cindy gives us access to all her wonderful patterns for free. For some reason I am unable to post the link on this post if you google Fat cat patterns you will see a fantastic site full of freebies.

My favourite xmas quilt think it might have been a row swap in 2002 I just love the colours it brightens up the room.
