Another Field Journal block has been done ... I have been rather neglecting these, but they will happen
I worked on one of two quilts I am making from my farmers (son and DIL) shirts... they have two daughters and these quilts are specially being made for them.
this one is based on the Broken Dishes block.... I wanted fairly uncomplicated blocks as the fabric moves and it was hard to get good points.... they won't mind that some have been chopped off.
Part 2 of Gossip in the Garden has been completed....
Michelle has a different version
and I have done February's quilting session ....
On Williams Street gives instruction on quilting , which I am following as her style is quite different to my own and it's getting me to try different patterns....
I really like the block too and think it would be lovely in two colours only.... another on my want to do list!
I spotted this bag at The Quilters Angel.... and made it up in Easter fabrics.... its not very big but would certainly hold a few lovely easter eggs...
It was good to get this little bag finished, I feel I am jumping from one thing to the next at the moment.
Righto, Gotto Go..... I want to start preparing Part 3 of Gossip to work on this month....

Hi Fiona ,well done on your beautiful work,you sure do achieve a lot myfriend,,love the idea of the farmers shirt quilts,very special 🌹🤍🌹
ReplyDeleteWell done on your work this week, I have done nothing! But I've been very busy doing it.....
ReplyDeleteLovely needlework. The Broken Dish quilt is beautiful. Do you starch the fabric? It would help to stabilize the fabric. Gossip in the Garden is a charmer. I had a giggle on that one. Too cute! Well done with the Williams Street project. Your Easter bag is the cutest one out there for sure. Enjoy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteLovely FJ block.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt made from the shirts will be a special one for your GDs.
Love the centre block for Gossip in the Garden.
Nice quilting on your block and a sweet Easter bag.
Your Gossip block is gorgeous - lovely colours! What a great little bag and your shirt quilt top is looking lovely. xx
ReplyDeleteSo many lovely things going on. The field journal block is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThe shirt quilt is lovely as is the field journal block. Gossip is gorgeous, great to be stitching along with Michelle.
ReplyDeleteA lovely sweet embroidery. Your shirt quilts are great and will be such great keepsakes. Love Gossip centre....so pretty with your Tildas. Can't believe thst bunny will soon be on it's way xx
ReplyDeleteAll very nice projects, Fiona. The quilts from your Son and DILs shirts are going to be super special for their girls.
ReplyDeleteGreat work using those plaid fabrics..something that I avoid as they are fiddly to get straight. Cute Easter bag.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful projects as always. Great idea using those fabrics for the girls. Loving your FJ embroidery , love all of them to date. Your applique is very sweet. Love Michelle's too but can't comment on her blog...trouble signing in with google.
ReplyDeleteSa happy to see your embroidered Field Journal block. And all your other very pretty projects too, Fiona. Lovely stitching happening at your house!
ReplyDeleteNice job on the Easter bag. You used such pretty fabrics. Your BOMs are pretty too. As for the Field Journal block, so pretty too! Keep making progress there. It's one of my favorites to check in on!
ReplyDeleteEvery one of the field journal designs is a delight. How many are you up to now?
ReplyDeleteLooks like you are busy again with a lot of projects on the go.
