soon


In no time at all it will be here. The Stitches & Craft Show, Sydney. And here's a peep at a couple of more quilts my Aunty Norma made to display.

film and swap



Show and tell for today:
a) a recent swap done with the super talented Jesse. Thanks!! Love the photo of textile designers in her latest post. I could really see something similar with some friends of mine... Lara, B, Teegs, Shannon - anyone for a photo shoot?
b) new film for a 2 colour yardage design. This is a BIG deal for me. There are a lot of different costs involved in hand screen printing. It all starts with the film - $330AUD for 2 pieces... ahhh. Almost more than I spend on clothing in a year. So for that price, I think it deserves it's own blog post and photo.

little angel


She swoops into Sydney for a brief chat, cup of tea and scones. Delivers the most stunning quilts she has been working on in secret for the past few months and then she's gone, back to sunnier lands north of Sydney. One hour with my 'little angel'. The sweetest and most talented quilter. One of the most encouraging forces in my life (along with Mum & Dad). And she goes by the name of Aunty Fuzz. Thanks.

Here are just 2 of the 5 pieces (yes, 5!) that were delivered today. To be displayed at the Stitches and Craft Show in Sydney come August. More pics soon.

Interuption

Not much blogging here lately. Everyone in the house has got a virus, so we have been laying on the lounge. Hope to get back to blogging soon.
