Last Christmas from Wendy's Quilts and More

I finished my Trip Around the World quilt just in time to enter it into Capital Quilters recent exhibition.

You can read my first blog post about this quilt here. I made this quilt over the Christmas break and found all these fabrics in my stash. I ...

My Easter break in Tekapo from Wendy's Quilts and More

At Easter I went to Tekapo in the middle of the South Island of New Zealand. The mountains and lakes are amazing there and the weather was beautiful. The place we stayed at had great views and a big deck off the lounge.

I took some quilting along because our Capital Quilters exhibtion is fast approaching and I'm not ready!! I still have two quilts in progress and this is one of them. It's the Trip Around the World that I started in January. You can read more about it here.

A Trip Around the World from Wendy's Quilts and More

Happy New Year everyone.

No sooner had I dropped my mum and dad at the airport on 27 December than I started getting inspired on Instagram. Often I will start a Christmas themed cross stitch between Christmas and New Year, but this year I started a Christmas quilt and I had the whole top pieced in just seven days.

I was inspired by this photo on Instagram:

But I used the brighter colours from this Christmas gift bag:

The photo I liked was by Edyta Sitar so I used her Laundry Basket Quilts PDF pattern for a Trip Around the ...

August Wrap Up from Pinkadot Quilts

I enjoyed making this little mini quilt today. I may even hand quilt it, what do you think? The Pattern is called Olde Glory by Temecula Quilts. It is a free pattern that you can find on the internet. I don't have a link to share with you.

I feel like a squirrel jumping from thing to thing. My sewing was a bit limited this summer and now I want to make it all!
