I have worked a bit on my butterfly quilt it’s been a long time since I started it I have looked at my dragon quilt that has to be finished and I found in my box of ufo’s two more quilts ready to be quilted. I have made four flowers for my garden this week I lost my mojo for a while and have found it again and hope to do a lot more sewing. Quilting at Janome has started this week we all had a good time on Monday and am looking forward to next week, Doll clubs have started up after the Christmas break but I have not thought what I will make yet. I also won a gift over at Amanda’s blog some fabric for my stash. It’s a great site (I love cloth dolls and cloth craft) Dolly Hugs to all. Rita.

Wind and Rain

Four flowers this week

50 Flowers

For Amandas blog challenge

Mr Ginge
We have had wind and rain in Mackay for the last week I love the rain good weather to sit at the sewing machine and create not that I did I was just too lazy. I did manage to do my hexagons for the month I have finished 50 flowers now I still do not know how many I need for a double bed quilt someone please let me know. The doll clubs that I go to have closed or are about to close for the Christmas holidays so I will have lots of time to make hexagons. I also managed to make my project for the challenge on Amanda’s blog. Miss Molly had a visit from her friend Mr Ginger from over the way. Dolly Hugs to all. Rita.
