Elia's Clown
(Ella)

When I started this clown......... thought this will be good...... Jeni!!!!


I am not a knitter ..as my passion is Patchwork No 1... & Crocheting No 2 .....But I took the needles in hand and started......It was very simple as you see its only blocks of squares..and then you arrange them .... together like a patchwork quilt....the wool baby soft.... so yummy to work with ....I must admit My friend Pat did sew the hair on for me .....when it was completed .....once again I danced around yelling ......I Did It!!!!!!!!!!
Elia my granddaughter loves (Ella) and Grannie is happy too

The Wedding Quilt

My son (Peter) married a beautiful Japanese girl (Yuka)...So I thought I better get

.......Stitching...and make this Hexagon Quilt....Let me tell you 740 Pieces I cut out,and then started sewing it....together...

Well days turn into nights....nights turn into weeks & weeks into months....but when I look back....I had a lovely time & put so much love into this Quilt...and when the last thread was cut.....I sprang to my feet and danced around my sewing room Yelling I Did It!!!!!!!

The fabric I choose-----Navy Blue---With Little White Oval Leaves---And Then The Edge was In A Rust Red------

(Only 9 More Sleeps Until Santa)

It's Feels A Little Like Christmas

I decided to make this for my 2nd daughter

" Kylie"
she was living in (Newcastle) England.
I was missing her

&

I didn't want her

to feel like she was so far from the family.

I was very pleased

with the finished result
