This blog is where I share with you all my quilting and sewing progress. I love English Paper Piecing and hand quilting but also enjoy making small items like pincushions and throw cushions. Please leave your comments and let me know you've dropped by.

Also, please feel free to have a look at my new cycling blog. This is a new hobby for me so there will probably be some fun and falling on the way!! Click on the pic at left hand side.

My First Attempt at Variable Star Block



Hi again.
I've been busy these last couple of days trying to master the Variable Star block. For some this will be a block you could do with your eyes shut, but for me it was a great learning experience. It also MADE me use the sewing machine!
So here they are........







And now I'm off for a nice cup of tea and a couple of Digestive biscuits!! That's my reward!!! LOL

Liberated House Block for Block Lotto



Here's my very first attempt at a Liberated ( or Wonky) House block.
My eyes were going wonky by the time I'd finished. This little fellow was a challenge as I do nearly everything by hand, over freezer paper and with exact geometric shapes!!I'm not quite delighted with it but I'll share it anyway just to encourage others who may think they can't do other things too!!



Catch up with you soon.
