Works in Progress

Today I am finishing off a sample bag for Sackville and Lane. It is one of Heather Bailey's patterns, Saturday Market Bag. I will be teaching how to make this bag at Sackville and Lane in Term 1 and possible term 2 of 2011. I am making it with the bow today, to go in the shop, however I am not usually a 'bow' sort of person so will make another one for me to use in the meantime without the bow.






I have also started putting my quilt top together, I want to have this finished so when I visit Amitie (which I can't wait, it has been too long between visits!!) on Monday morning I can find some fabric for the backing and binding for it. And then I have 2 more quilts to keep working on which I will show you another time.


This little picture was drawn by the talented Gemma over here, quite some time ago, I already had the frame which I painted black and then had someone frame it for me. We have a lot of Parker and 50's, 60's type furniture, so I thought it was well suited.


Have a nice day,

All such lovely things. The colours in your quilt are really beautiful and I am such a fan of simple drawings over print. We have some of birds at our place. x
