Henry the Horsie!

No 5 on my FAL 2018 Q3 list! Henry the Horse. Another fab pattern by Tartan Kiwi. Using my horded stash of Ardently Austen fabric. Im too late for the link up but i like to be completist :-) This was mostly done at one of this years Gartmore retreat.

enough pandas????

OK you cant not know that i love pandas right?? so here is no 1 on my Q3 2018 FAL list the Oslo craft bag by sew sweetness. I have wanted to make one of these for ages, just never got round to it. but then i got the hidden panda canvas and i knew it had to be in this bag. I may have used up some more of my panda stash, but hey one can never have enough pandas 😁

Classic meets modern! another finish!

Number 2 on my FAL 2018 Q3 list, blimey im motoring on here! this was supposed to be a BOM by Myquiltinfatuation but im a bit rubbish at those and just went and finished it way ahead of time. Love the layout, used up a lot of dashwood in this. a fun bright quilt, destined for siblings together.

 Fabulous quilt holding from the fabulous Scoobs!

A leaving present

Oh my goodness where to begin?? well the beginning is a good place. Before i go any further lets just mention that this is me ticking off no 3 on my FAL Q3 list

I was in the process of leaving the jobi  had been in for 11 years a long time. My boss who has been a good boss and friend loves Japanese fabric and also loves the swans we have on campus, so it really was a no brainer to make her the Tartan Kiwi swan pattern in japanese fabrics. i knew exactly what i wanted to do, just needed to make sure i had enough fabrics.

The putting together was relatively straight forward, thanks to Juliets brilliant patterns this came together quite quickly.

Of course I had to get a picture of it on the campus

 And my favourite floofy pal had to photo bomb!

FAL 2018 Q3 bunting

How the heck did this get published with no text??! anyhoo, this was number 4 on my FAL 2018 Q3 list. A lovely lecturer asked if i could make bunting for her daughters bedroom, so of course and there was some left over for a dolls quilt.
