Its been cold here for a while so I've spent more time than usual watching TV with a quilt on my lap - no, not slacking, but finishing the binding by hand.
That means I actually have a few finishes to show:
My Rainbow floating charms (or LJR7 ) quilt
And the first of three quilts from shirt fabric
I've also finished another dozen named fleece jackets
And I've finally done the Magna Carta 1215 2015 embridery panel
In other news I've had three creative classes this week. Hopefully you can see photos if you click on the SLIKstitches Facebook page, please let me know if the link doesn't work for you.
In short we have a nearly finished baby changing bag from Monday, a cushion made from our transfer paints fun in January, a proggy owl and some faux cathedral windows from Chertsey and a great two hour session with kids dipping in and out of all the craft resources boxes at church yesterday
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
Busy, busy, busy Benta - how do you cram it all in?
ReplyDeleteI find that its a wonderful way to spend the cold winter nights .. and helps save on the heating x lol x
ReplyDeleteWell done on all your finishes such a good feeling to finish something a!
ReplyDeleteLove the floating charms! So cheerful
ReplyDeleteSnuggle up and get work done at the same time? Sounds good to me :) You really do keep yourself so busy, I am forever amazed.
ReplyDeleteHi Benta! Your quilt tops look beautiful! You can guess that I love the RAINBOW one but also the quilt with shirts will be fantastic! I really love to use men's shirts, they have lovely colours and material. x Teje
ReplyDeleteWell done. I love that rainbow quilt.
ReplyDeleteLovely quilts! You have been busy (again!)!
ReplyDeleteVery nice quilt finishes. And what's the Magna Cata bit going to be? When my friend Michelle came home with me from France we went to Salisbury Catherdral and saw one of them.
ReplyDeleteTwo gorgeous quilts!
ReplyDeleteLooks like the cold made you super productive!
ReplyDeleteYour quilts are both looking great and I love your Magna Carta embroidery :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful shirt quilt. The black & white stripy binding I can glimpse looks like a great complement too!
