Celtic Cushion

Well I finished the Cushion around midnight last night, and I've already started cutting more strips for another project.  I loved using the bias bars to make the strips so much, this time I think I'll do a whole quilt.

UFO's completed

I've just come back from a week long sewing holiday at mum's.  I managed to get quite a few UFO's completed, and finally got to do the Celtic piece I've wanted to do for years thanks to the support of Judie Bellingham.

Here are a couple of the projects I've done this week.

Indian travel rug (pattern or kit available at stitch this) Made by Christine & Alysha

Celtic cushion cover

Mum's first quilt - Strippy four patch (pattern available at stitch this)

Meanwhile Mum's just got her quilt back from the quilter.  This is her very first machine pieced quilt.  Pretty awesome I think. Now she's on a mission to create quilts for 10 1/2 grandkids.

Congratulations to our oldest boy Paul on his Navy graduation.  Next week he is off to Sydney for about 6 months to begin his career training.  Then he is off to see the world.
