Granny Shrug

I found this on Kootoyoo Blog,Kristy has done some Awesome Instructions for this Super Easy Shrug.

I have never been into Knitting, Preferring Crochet as it grows so quick and you don't have to count too much, so this is right up my Ally.


I went through my cupboard looking for wool and found some 12ply Bendigo Woollen Mills wool in Rustic Elm Green.


I only had one ball so I thought I can start one and if it doesn't work I can unpick and have lost nothing.


Luckily I live in Bendigo and I went down to the Mill to get another 2 balls!


So I think I will work on the shrug today, Even though I should be working on some of my UFO's

My New Couch Companion!

It's a pattern from Leanne's House. Love things that are Cute and Useful!
A Bit like my Husband :)
Except my Husband doesn't normally hang over the arm of the couch LOL!!

Blogger's Quilt Festival - Spring 2010

Thanks Amy for Hosting The Blogger's Quilt Festival

This is one of the First Quilts I made.

It may look familiar to all who read my Blog as it's the first thing you see when logging on.

I had always loved the movement of Bargello Quilts, and I wanted to do one in Bright Kaffee Fassett Fabrics.

It took 20 Jelly Roll strips and once I got my head around sewing them into tubes ,the Quilt was simple to put together.

I Quilted it with an E2E Pattern that has Flowers and Butterflys on it.

This Quilt taught me not to be daunted by anything and to just Give It a go.

Shameless!

Shameless I know, It's so mean but I had to share my Neptune with you,now that I finally have a good stash.

This is my Favorite Tula Pink Fabric,and I actually let out a squeal of delight when I found these on a Website at Half Price!!!!!!!!

I had been chasing the Honeybuns for a while, the rest was a Quilt Kit that had 2 Layer Cakes, Borders, Binding and Backing fabric,What a Deal

The Honeybuns and Fat Quarters are going into Cinderberry Stitches Tail Feathers Quilt.

I have finished the binding on my Verna Quilt, I have quilted it it a large Floral Pattern that's E2E

This Quilt is mine to snuggle with!

Scooby my dog had to wait till the photo was taken today before she could sit on my lap, she manages to snuggle with all of my Personal Quilts,Actually she thinks they are all hers!

Super Quick Quilt

Kate Dixon of One Flew Over designed this quilt for Fat Quarterly Emagazine.

I have Quilted it with Pink Thread in Large swirls.

This is a very Quick and Easy Quilt to put together, easily done in a day!

Everyone loves Quilts like that.

I never have unmatched colours on the backs of my quilts, so my decision to put a Teal backing was so out of the ordinary but it actually works.

This Fabric was bought a few years back,but I have never found fabric to match and I didn't want to cut it up so I added Plain Teal and used for this backing.

I will be putting Dark Purple as the binding,which I still haven't purchased so it give me a good excuse to go shopping!

Zipperty Doo Dah Done!

I have finally finished the binding on My Monster bed Quilt.

I slept with it on the bed last night and absolutely Cooked, so we may have to wait for a few more weeks before we can use it fulltime,but at least we are ready for Winter!

Bring It On!
