Well the start of Spring disappeared. The month has been crazy, I never got to any parks and gardens which are beautiful this time of year in our town, and I never even managed to visit our local Quilt Show. I do love September in our local city.
I haven't been entirely idle though....
My diamonds quilt is done...... I made this top in 2018 from a Collections for a Cause Kit. The top was sewn entirely on my Singer Treadle machine.
Last month I completed the quilting.... curves using a ruler throughout....
I love the backing I had found.. matches perfectly..... We had some coolish evenings so I had this on my lap and handstitched down the binding....
I had a morning free this week so started on making my Ginger Jar blocks.... Those curves at the top are a bit challenging and I will need to trim the blocks before putting them together.
Last night I started the applique
Another orchid has flowered, it's measly compared to others I've seen but our first flowers on this one....
Righto, Gotta Go... today I am catching up with a couple of sewing friends I haven't seen for a while..... will be fun....
Have a lovely weekend....xx
