Hi Everybody

Today is another little mini dance as I have finished the May Basket to my Redwork Basket Quilt by Mandy Shaw of Dandelion Designs.

Here is the completed May Redwork and the Patchwork Block for May

I have also made a start on the June Basket, and I am immensely pleased that I am now half way through these baskets. I only have two more patchwork blocks to finish and the whole year of those will be complete. The final thing will be to join these two sets together.

Here is June started

Well that is me for now, so why not grab a cuppa and peruse the other members listed below to see what they have achieved these past three weeks.

Hi everybody

Last Friday I posted about my new William Morris Quilt. Well today I can tell you that I changed the design into a Chevron pattern which showcased the fabric beautifully. I have now pieced a backing with the remainder of the fabric and have now found some batting and this quilt is now on the awaiting quilting pile. ( the ever growing pile!!!)

Here are some photos of the front

The back

Some close up of materials used

To quilt it I may just stitch in the ditch along the chevron grey pieces but who knows I may change my mind.

Bye for now, Take Care
