Been busy today framing printed labels for a special present - this is still a secret though.
Need to go and buy a backing now so I can proceed.

Sunday's Off

Well not entirely - still stitching.
Treating myself to time on my new project, Jane Austen's Bonnets.
Check it out on http://www.countryquiltco.com.au/index.php/patterns/thimblestitch.html
I am adding my own little creative touches, like beading and ribbon embroidery, so it is a little indulgent, but gorgeous - photos to follow when something is finished.

Lace Dyeing




Yesterday I found some lace I had been dyeing and I just have to find a project for them.


Take a look at them and tell me what you think.


I hope the Lace Seller is at the Craft Expo next weekend so I can get some more.

Quilt Top in a morning


With 7 pieces of fabric, it doesn't take long to finish a quilt top.

So what do you think of my Red and Yellow Sunflowers.

Still have to quilt and bind, but it looks lovely and fresh and bright.

I am listing the full kits on Etsy today, so take a look.

Happy Quilting,

Lyn

Check back later to see the colour combination.
In cloudy Brisbane, waiting to see if it rains.

Free Pattern and French Quilts


I have been designing a range of French Provincial Quilts and the patterns and kits will be available through my Etsy Store -

but for the month of March, I will be making one pattern available for free.

This is my Sunflower Strippy Quilt - it is quick and easy and a wonderful use of a large feature print fabric.

So please email me and I will email you the pattern which goes with the kit, but describes the fabric required and the full instructions.
It's so easy - choose hydrangeas or roses or ask me about the kit for this quilt.
Happy Quilting,
Lyn.
