Just thought I would put up a few pictures of a block of the month quilt I have just started with a shop in Australia. I think the quilt is called The Pond House. It is very sweet and I have enjoyed the first block, it is easy and a good way to start enjoying patchwork again.

This is the quilt to the left, I saw it at the Hamilton Quilt Show and quite fell in love with it. I think that the finished one that was on show was tea dyed so I will look into doing that when I have finished it.

The first block was the heart one above the house, I have stuck it all to the background and now will just do some handstitching over the weekend to get it all attached.


I am just happy to be sewing again, just one hour a night and I should start to see some progress! Yay for me!

New Year... New Plans... New Enthusiasm...

I finally remembered my blog name, email and password! Quite an achievement. I have become totally bored with facebook so plan now to write on here as a diary... see how it goes. I have so much to say and remember it seems to be a great idea.

I totally love the feeling of a New Year. The incredible feeling of "I can do anything" and so I want to explore how I can do anything and fit so much more into my day and then my life. A lot of plans and desires - so here I go, one thing at a time but so many things squeezed into every day.

Very very exciting!
