I started the week ill and today I was off work. So whilst I was on the sofa watching a film, trying not to move too much because I felt so weak and my brain was doing funny things, I stitched the skinny binding onto my Rain Deer Limbo quilt. Ta da! You may remember [...]

Lots of photos, mainly because it was dark and really difficult to take one I liked, so you’re getting the whole lot! This quilt is made from 9 12″ blocks from the Great Granny Along that started last summer, the tutorial for the block is HERE. All the fabrics used are from a Curio jelly [...]

My sister’s quilt is officially finished! I spent a couple of hours last night making and sewing on the binding and finally finished it before work this morning.
