Christmas Elves

Hi

This is a gorgeous Christmas panel which I had fun stitching with glittery threads.  Can't believe Christmas is this close!

PS Sorry about the sideways picture, not sure how to fix it.

Adelaide

Hi

Had an absolutely fantastic time in Adelaide learning all sorts of new skills.  Best teachers including the very talented Judi Madsen.  Wow she is amazing! 

This is my sample from Rachelle's class.  Hard to see the coloured thread on the flowers and leaves.  I did try out my new couching foot - it is so easy and fun to do.  Will be looking for some lovely yarns to use on some other projects.

Happy Christmas

I have just finished vliesofixing my happy reindeer for my Christmas runner.  The Quilters Angel (Highfields) sent me a kit and I just love it!!!

Helen's Hexagons

This is the border to Helen's HUGE hexagon quilt.  I used the swag ruler for the first time because of the large border area to quilt.  I highlighted the swag with gold thread.  Helen - you are amazing.  I am not sure how long it took you to make this quilt but WOW!
