This year I’ve signed up to 2 Block of the Month (BOM) English Paper Piecing clubs. In this post I’m going to talk about the one from Sew and Quilt. I first remember Jessie starting the club a couple of years ago and I ummed and arghed about it. Deciding in the end against it.…… Continue reading Blooming Blossoms BOM (block of the month)
So can you believe it, I managed to post a pincushion a day for the whole month! Day 22 – This is a teeny tiny one! Only 2.5inches square. I added some sweet embroidery embellishments, I think the elephant looks very regal with her floral crown! Day 23 – Such sweet Elea Lutz fabric! She…… Continue reading Pinnie Parade – Final Week!
My round-up of week 2 of the Pinnie Parade! So far I’m still managing to post a pinnie a day even while being away! I’m actually really enjoying this. It’s a great way to use up all those little scraps and revisit fabrics you forgot you had because they have been retired to the scrap…… Continue reading Pinnie Parade – Week 2
I think you know me well enough by now to know that I love hexies! So when my mum kindly gave me a copy of the new book Happy Hexies by Boutique Sha I knew it wouldn’t be long before I made something from it! My lack of posts recently is because we’ve been on holiday, I…… Continue reading Happy Hexies – Floral Coaster

It was the first bit of sewing I was able to do after having Mabel. I mentioned here before that I had terrible carpal tunnel syndrome during the last…… Continue reading Pretty Dresden Purse
Just like that we hurtling towards mid march! How did that happen? I had lots of things planned for the blog in February including a couple of Valentines themed posts and a Pancake day post. Unfortunately life and responsibilities have a habit of getting in the way! I’ve not had a lot of time to much…… Continue reading Life lately…
After blogging about my Spring Stitching Club quilt it reminded me that I had some hexies left over that I didn’t use, and as a way to grip onto a little bit of spring sunshine I thought I’d see if I could come up with something for the rest of them. I think it’ll either be…… Continue reading Playing with ‘Left-overs’
The only way I am managing to survive the World Cup is immersing myself in a new project, and although I’ve not been blogging regularly my hands have not been idle! My Spring Stitching Quilt is almost complete and just needs to be quilted, there will be a post about that coming soon! I enjoyed…… Continue reading Hexagons – A new project
