The cabin fever finally kicked in after nearly 5 weeks of not leaving the house other than to do the school run, and as promised I took the quilts for a walk :)
So as I also promised some un-faffed with pictures
We had a jaunt to the park with the quilts and Madam leading the way
This is partly show's how fab "him in doors" really is, hiding behind a plastic rock (yup its plastic!?!) holding a quilt in place for photos :D
The binding was done on Friday and I know the sashing doesn't line up but I love this quilt to bits. It has been named "Fairytale Forest"
Thank you all for your advice on sewing machines it was much appreciated! I have a lovely machine all boxed up in the sewing room, that we picked up today, ready to play with tomorrow and I. CAN'T. WAIT!!!!
Expect a sewing machine review soon :)
Hope your weekends going well!
Tee hee . you are so adorable!
ReplyDeleteThey are all beautiful! Love the diamond one with all those bright colors! And if you hadnt mentioned the sashing not lining up I would not have noticed. I really had to search for it. it's still a beauty and you can be really proud of it. Cant wait to see and read about your new toy!
ReplyDeleteOoh what machine? I giggle everytime you say "him indoors". Cant remember which comedy show it came from
ReplyDeleteLove the pics! And that Fairytale Forest is just divine!

ReplyDeleteThe diamonds are my fave, the fussy cutting is great, and the random pieced diamonds look fab! Now back to squares? LOL
ReplyDeleteI love love love your Fairytale Forest! It's so lovely! Sashing and binding match perfectly.
ReplyDeleteA plastic rock?!! Love what him indoors is willing to do to help you take such great photos! Both quilts look fabulous but the bright colours of the diamonds quilt makes my heart sing! Have fun with your new machine!
ReplyDeleteI love both your quilts but I think the diamonds are really spectacular!
ReplyDeletePlastic rock? Uh, yeah, I could see how bereft of rocks the North East was when I was down in Sheffield at the weekend, I can see why they brought the plastic ones in... o.O
