Kylies Stash & Slash Quilt

 

I just love sewing these Quilts……. not just quick……… but doesn’t matter how many you do always a pleasing result …..

Last August (that’s sounds funny being the 1^st day already into 2013)

I found a lovely piece of fabric at a curtain shop Kylie found in New Zealand …………well home it came and yes I match material …and so the Quilt is now complete …A little material  left over to make a plastic bag dispenser…for the kitchen ………….

 

I was also Kylie's Secret Santa last year …And her hubby had purchase a Brother machine for her Christmas Gift…so I made a sewing machine cover and Table mat to match…just love the Quilted double side material ……..

My Sewing Room Is Not Well At All

 

 

The last 6 months

I just sew and complete projects and not put away………
(very naughty)

Fabric I would purchase and be very keen

To start another project ….but would end up finding

a spare piece of carpet …and plonk it down here ……………..There’s always tomorrow to tidy…… well the camera Tells it how it finds the room ………..As you will see I have been doing a lot of plonking and not much putting away ………………..

It has been a mammoth job …I tell myself never again …………

Now I am excited to get into a few new projects for 2013.…………….

And its great to open draws and cupboards and find just what I need

So now the sewing room it well again

 

 Next Winter

Plenty of wool

Busy ..Busy ..Busy..

 

What a Great Feeling

When you are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel………….

This year I have been busy making handmade gifts for friends and family………..

Disposal Kitchen Bag Holder & Matching Tea Towel

And 10 minute Table Runner

Made many……………

By the way the first took about 1 hour just couldn’t get my head around the instructions so what better way than ask…After being shown well no stopping 10 table runners here we come …………..

　

Also I started knitting dolly’s outfits for Elia

For her 5^th Birthday we gave her a Cabbage Patch Doll

Yes with Birth Certificate…..

They are back producing them again my girls had one 30 old years ago …….

And yes the Answer is they are still unattractive after all these years

Poor doll.
