QBBC Week 5

Great pinwheel technique where you put 2 squares right sides together and sew around the outside, cut corners to corners then sew your half triangle squares together.
Simple and fun.

Another One Finished

Myself and 2 friends made this quilt top a few years ago.
It's from the material obession books - the Melbourne ladies.
So much fun to make,  a real puzzle.  You really need a design wall for this one.
I machine quilted down the wedges then hand quilted with pearl thread, big stiches around each ring.

As far as I know the others 2 are still unquilted And I'm not offering to do them.

QBBC Week 4

Cute cat block

Louie II

Within my extended family there will be five babies born.

Actually 3 have already been born.

So, 5 baby quilts are planned.

The first one is for the newest baby, Louie.

A brother for Tommy who I made the robot quilt for.

Next is another Louie, then Noah who was born in Sweden late last year.

2 more babies yet to come.

I hope they are girls, I have girly ideas for quilts.

Here is Louie II monster quilt.
