These are from Lori,
and these are from Helen, all beautiful blocks that fit well with my collection of spinning wheels.
This is the blue and white star I sent to Helen, along with a mug mat made from the same fabrics.
Now I have made contact with my February partner who has asked for a block with a teapot or cup and saucer theme. I have found some foundation piecing patterns I will make up with some new exciting Asian patterned fabrics.
I was also part of Sue's cushion swap - mine arrived a little while ago - picture in an earlier post. This is the cushion I made for Fiona -
The petal shapes are held in place with buttons, and the cover closes with a single overhand knot in a matching tie.
I am currently making a couple of cushions for ME. Pictures will follow their completion.
More sewing is planned for my grandies - next birthday is for 5 yo - angry birds purse and a wall banner with her name is planned.
For an older grandson I have plans to make The Hobbit quilt from fandomin stitches. If I start now it should be ready in plenty of time with no rushing.
Hi Jan
ReplyDeleteI could not reply to your post on the blog about postage costs as you are a no reply blogger, visit the button on how to remedy this. There is also some information on international postage costs on the blog that may help you. Basically keep your posting to the US under 50g or it will cost you $6.20, so no goodies. Under 50g it will cost $2.35 which is the minimum postage. I cant have only Aussie swappers in the group, due to the number of international members but I do share the international swaps around and you will only get one ever 2-3 months,
