So I'm not a good blogger...

So not posting anything for 8 months probably mean's I suck - I can't even defend myself that I was kidnapped by aliens. What actually happened was Netflicks.

I have been doing stuff! Here's the proof

Third Baby Quilt

So I've already said where this pattern is from, the only thing i did differently is I added the elephants. 

When I had it laid out on my floor the corner looked really bare, so I just appliquéd some elephants on and now I think its perfect.

I used a panel for the animals (obviously, I am not even 2% skilled enough to make those) and used blocks of prints in-between.

The reason its got those coloured corners is because I screwed the binding up and there was no way I was gonna do it again!

I kinda like it though, so it was a happy accident.

I quilted it differently than I usually do, no meandering for this quilt! I went with thin lines (I know, really not difficult)

Perpendicular Ovals

Wedding Quilt 2015

This was a monster and there was no way to get a picture of it laid out so here is it folded instead! I'm actually really annoyed with myself because I didn't get a picture of the back (or maybe I did and then deleted it because I'm a moron)

Random Pillow

Side 1 was string pieced (not with paper, because I really hate that method. I just sewed scrap strips together and cut them into squares).

Side 2 is a Hazel Hedgehog (pattern by Elizabeth Hartman)

WIP: Hexi duvet cover

I'm using a mix of blue/green solids, with a few prints thrown in for luck (who can resist a print?).
This one is still on going, I'm going back to my roots and English Paper Peicing it - needless to say its taking forever.

Abandoned Projects 

I'm pretty far behind the Economy Block bandwagon, because they didn't really appeal to me but I saw a picture on instagram that looked something like this >> and decided to give them a bash.
Not really thrilled with it enough to continue, maybe it'll make a nice back for something further down the line

Instagram strikes again as inspiration.
I finished this and then didn't know what to do with it, so it sits in a draw with the one above.
Which i admit is a shame because I really like some of the elements on this, like the different coloured flying geese, triangles and the hexis (which I EPPed).








Almost up to date the next post is the real reason I logged on...
