The truck quilt is finished

 I had a lot of fun making this quilt. I used up so much of my black and white scraps.

Damien loved the quilt.

A quilt for my son in law…..

A quilt for my son in law. It is his birthday soon and I have had this in mind for 2 years. It’s about time I got it done. So I pulled out the panel I had bought and showed it to my friend. A light bulb went off and I thought of how I could finish it. I was so happy that I drew up a design and pulled out my black and white fabric scraps.


Corner blocks have started


The blocks and road is growing.


Do I add the side borders to resemble the white lines on the sides as of the road.


I decided not to do the extra borders on the sides as the quilt was big enough. 


All the sewing on the top was done and I won bobbin chicken

It was a lovely day outside this afternoon. The sun was out, no wind and very comfortable temperature. Great time to baste a quilt in the fresh air.

An overdue post

this post is a month over due...
My daughter came for a visit last month. We had a great time and I finally got to meet the boyfriend.
We went out for lunch, did the tourist things, had a laugh, enjoyed the grandsons and all had fun together....
Kristy went to the speedway with her boyfriend, Damien and Nicholas. Xavier stayed home and we made chocolate mousse. We enjoyed it together.

We also all went on a river cruise together. Yep, on an old Paddle steamer. On board the MELBOURNE... It was fun...

It's hard getting a good photo with the boys.
