What do you do when you realise your friend is hosting TGIFF this week and you have no finishes?? Grab some scraps and use your new giant package of insulated batting to make a trial potholder (seriously, I do not know how they can fit so much batting into one little plastic bag… This will last me a life time!),… Read More
Assorted TGIFF
After having lost my sewjo for a week or so, I eased back on board this week with three small finishes. The first was a stroller book bag that has been in the WIP pipeline for a good couple of months. I had finished the front weeks ago, and then left the easiest part of adding a back, a lining… Read More
On The Go High and Low Pillow
Two little people woke up this morning to find something new on the couch… The pillow stars “Thomas and Harold!!!!!!!!” according to Little Miss – high praise indeed. I added a border to the four blocks to bring it up to size (45cm/18″) using an orange DS print. It’s a little wonky, but the fact that the four blocks line… Read More
TGIFF: I Spy A Giveaway!
This quilt started over a year ago as one of my first quilting projects after my husband bought me Ellie. I thought I was so clever making a transport quilt for my transport-loving son! And then I found out it’s called an I-spy quilt. But hey, still proud of it! It eventually was tucked away in a WIP pile of… Read More
Paper Pieced Totoro Nappy Wallet
Welcome to my day for the Practically Paper Pieced blog hop! If you’re new here, please, make yourself at home – maybe check out why I quilt or my sewing space? And TGIFF will be visiting here on Friday with a special finish and giveaway to be shared – so pop back then to show off your finishes! But please,… Read More
Sweet Blooms Quilt
Earlier this year, I completed a reversible baby girl quilt using a layer cake of Amelie by Me and My Sister for Moda. I love using layer cakes for baby quilts as it means there’s some leftovers for me too! When we first moved to Japan and I was using a borrowed machine, I decided to pull out the scraps… Read More
July Retrospective; August Attempts
July wasn’t as productive as hoped – a little dash of low sewjo, a sore bum (don’t ask) meaning I couldn’t sit to sew, plus study starting up. But nonetheless, I have made steady progress towards my quarterly goals. I finished a UFO – Candy Apples – and whipped up Hibaba within a week. I’ve finished the quilt top for… Read More
Hibaba Table Runner
I have wanted to try out a granny square block for a while now, since I first saw them popping up around the blogosphere. But it wasn’t until The Great Granny Along popped up that I commited. But not for a whole quilt – I don’t have the time or effort for another quilt on the WIP list. Around the… Read More
Candy Apples Quilt
I am proud to introduce you to Candy Apples. I won a charm pack of Little Apples about a year ago. I can’t even remember where from now! I’ll be honest – I wasn’t completely sold on the range to begin with. The mustardy green just isn’t me. So I decided to just try a new pattern – a disappearing… Read More
Hello Helicopter!
Kristy at Quiet Play is the one who got me into paper piecing. She was the one who introduced me to the sewing machine paper piecing pattern that has since got me hooked into making gorgeous pieces of fabric art! Now, without a printer at home yet and having to rely on hubby’s work printer, I haven’t done much else… Read More
