100 Metre Dash
So! I may have got a little carried away at the open day event at Makower Fabrics on Sunday! It was a lovely opportunity to see what's coming up next year and to pick up some current favourites. Those metres really add up when you're buying it by the bolt. I went to bed with a head full of projects for next year.
Now I have filled in a few gaps on my shelves and have been busy adding them all to my online shop.
Why is it then, with all that lovely new fabric to sample, I revert to playing with the tiniest of scraps tonight? These mini log cabin blocks are part of my long standing 'Treasures' project. (And half of them are wrong! - out with the unpicker tomorrow).

(And half of them are wrong! - out with the unpicker tomorrow).Today I replaced the power adapter on my industrial bobbin winder, which had died when I went to start Jean's quilt the other week. I have been struggling along, just managing to load half a bobbin at a time on the Bernina.
I was so relieved to see that LED come on, as a new machine would have set me back several hundreds! I had managed to get my other jobs done; quilting one of my students' first project, ready to show her how to complete the final touches tomorrow; and quilting a lovely monochrome quilt for Toni to give her daughter.
Now I am ready to get stuck into Jackie's vivid Kaffe Fassett creation (above) which I have loaded and stabilised.
Wow - that's a lot of colour!
Here is one I can show.
Happy Quilting Everyone!
