little projects

This past week, I finished 2 small projects. I love those things that are done in half a day.
The lady with hat was a kit we received at the last regio dag from the Nederlandse quiltersgilde. It is now on display at a home for the elderly together with some other small items from my friends and me.

The tulip was a project I started in the US as a workshop. I finished it yesterday morning and gave it to a friend who turned 60.

Welcome home darling

Finally my darling has arrived safely in my new home. I had to amputate the Singapore plug and put a Dutch one on so I could send her off to be serviced. ( Rijkers in Veghel)
To my surprise I noticed something strange when I took her home again. She is a little naughty girl, because she came back with a tattoo !!!

But we talked about it and everything is fine again.
I am very glad we are together again and hope we can spend as much time together as possible!!

Happy sewing!!

family tree quilt progress

Last Friday I went to the open day at the Bernina Creative center in Breda. Had a look at the newest machines and signed up for a workshop in December. Hopefully my container has been unpacked by then and my Bernina can come along.

In the mean time with the limited tools available I have managed to stitch 7 blocks together for the family tree quilt. Using the Laundry Basket Half Square Triangle Paper and the fabric kit I bought from Edyta Sitar. Nice batiks combined with prints, give a scrappy look.  Just right for a quilt for a young man.

Happy Quilting,
Rose-Anne
