Weekend Vughtse Stucjes in Brunssum

Eindelijk was het zo ver: op quiltweekend met onze BEE.
Wat hebben we genoten afgelopen weekend met de Vughtse Stucjes in Brunssum!
Veel gelachen, veel gequilt en veel gegeten en gedronken.
Weinig geslapen en weinig buiten geweest....
Dit is voor herhaling vatbaar, we gaan weer sparen voor de volgende keer.

Dear Jane update

I have made 15 DJ blocks so far. Don't think there will be any more made this year ;)

I am happy with the result so far. Love the hand sewing, so relaxing!

Tonight the last bee of the year, thankful for my "Vughtse Stucjes" quilt friends. Live is good when you have friends to quilt with…..

Happy sewing,
Rose-Anne

Welcome home

Our quiltbee "Vughtse Stucjes" has welcomed home Ans after her bike ride to Rome with a heart garland. (picture will follow) Five hearts in different colors, mine is purple.

Just before she left, she gave each of us a shoebox filled with 3cm strips for a group project. We decided to make her a garland using those stripes.

Almost five weeks she has been on the road together with her husband.

According to initial reports, she would come home this Friday. So the plan was to collect the hearts on Wednesday (tomorrow) that gave us plenty of time to hang them at her front door.

BUT: yesterday we found out that she was coming home that evening!!

At full speed yesterday we finished the hearts .... just in time to welcome her home.

Welcome home Ans, we are looking forward to your stories.

Happy quilting,
Rose-Anne

Mystery part 10

After a busy time because of the quilt show in Deventer, I almost forgot what my sewing machine looked like....
But I made today into a quilt-day and finished the top of the mystery quilt Little Carrousel by Françoise Maarse.

Now I can show the result to the "Vughtse Stucjes" quilt bee tonight at my house.
Still have to sew the mitered corners, but I will manage before 8pm.....


Happy sewing,
