Irish Christmas Quilt

Teal foliage squares/binding, beige background, backing: Benartex. Turquoise diamonds: Moda Robin Pickens made me think of falling water drops, I sewed 24 HSTs one orientation, then the other 24 turned, to keep the directional print. Outer border Robin Pickens. Inner border Art Gallery Fabric floral elements, Mr W thought this might be too grey but it is mint green to me. Batting: Sew Simple 80/20 individual pack. Quilting: cream cotton Aurifil thread, back thread is Superior Thread. 

Pattern Irish Christmas from Fabriccafe, I received the Quick Christmas book from Mr W for my birthday. I like using 4 or 5 fabrics more than 3 and I use a double fold binding. Name blurred on label.

Patchwork Quilt

Skip to my Lou from Easy Peasy book. Prewashed cotton flannel batting.  I love the look and feel of a quilt lined in cotton flannel as batting, it's smooth and heavy like a weighted bedspread, it packs well for days out. 

Blue and white tile print, Fleur de lis. Both Gutermann fabric remnants.

Blue tiny hearts John Louden. Grey flower Moda fabric. Backing: aqua geometric tiles Camelot fabric 

Quilting: serpentine stitch each seam and criss cross on the blocks, very light grey Aurifil thread. Pattern is Skip to my Lou from Fabriccafe, from the book Easy Peasy 3 Yard Quilts (over 3 metres with double fold binding and directional prints). 

Barn Star 2 Quilt

Pet quilt 40 by 40 inches. We had to crouch for these photos as we didn't want to be photographed! 

Christmas present pet quilt for Fallon. I used a puffy wadding for this one and serpentine stitch. 

Pattern Barnstar 2 by Coriander Quilts, I've sewn Barn Star 1 and will make 3 or 4 next, I think there are 9 but not all are my style. 

Moda layer cake "Emma" (Sherri & Chelsea designer). 

White heart outlines on white tonal John Louden.

Binding: Green straws RB Studio @fleur.et.ours . Backing is Benartex, I liked the swirls but didn't realise it had squares on it, ok for backing, they look like Chinese almond biscuits. 

Wadding: Sew Easy polydown crib size

Quilting: Gutermann thread, white.

Recycled Pencil Case for Friend

My friend wanted 'Keep on Rucking' embroidery, I didn't know what that is, it's hiking or walking with weighted rucksacks! I machine stitched it in green with a leaf for outdoors, both sides.

100% cotton teatowel with crossiants on, cotton promotional tote bag, both never used. I prewashed the fabric and reused the loop and care label from the teatowel. 

Hand sewn on brass magnet. Denim and art gallery fabric tote for my friend.

Daisies Quilt

Quilt for my aunty, Mr W modelled it before.  posting.  

The pattern is Delight from The Magic of 3 Yard Quilts, but I used a double fold binding. Daisies: American quilting cotton purchased 2nd hand new. White: lacquer daisies on white. Yellow: Timeless Treasures. Green stripes (remind me of grass) Makower UK. Backing: Benartex, daisy print. Quilting front and back Gutterman 414 cream.

Boomerang Quilt

Boomerang Quilt - individual pattern from Fabric Cafe. Cross Windham, I wanted a country western look with the wood boomerangs. Woodgrain Maywood and Benartex. Ornate flower yellow on white Art Gallery Fabric.

Backing Art Gallery Fabric. I also made a churn dash quilt from the hypernature fabric collection, this one is for myself. Batting: 60/40 cotton Quilting: straight line, cream #gutermann thread front and back 

I love how my labels are looking! I use a 3.5 inch folded square of woodgrain print.

Bestfriend Locket Quilt

Mr W likes the first version I made for my friend, so I made him one too, with a different border (matte gold geometric for the 1st), backing and binding. I purchased some more Tula Pink besties in green to make another, it's a colour I like (green and gold) and I had a half heart from my penpal in the 90s.

Ashford Square pattern from Fabric Cafe Quilts in a Jiffy. 42 by 60 inches. 

Art Gallery Fabric green and ochre polkadot to bring out the colours. Windham atlas diamond for the natural background, I chose this as it had chain links. The backing is Tilda cotton I purchased on Sherwoods a while ago with a voucher, in cream, teal and primrose yellow. I useused the remainder to make a quilt for my friefriend's cat. Looks like a 2018 range.

Quilting is a darn beige Gutermann thread, which I thought would look gold but blend, bobbin thread is cream. I edge stitched each side of each vertical and horizontal seam, then just under 2 inch in the centres after the first 1.5 inch space.
