A WALL HANGING AND MY NEW BABY

In March I attended a quilt sew-in in Hobart, Tasmania with several great designers and we stitched and sewed several items. We also did a lot of sight seeing, shopping and chatter amongst ourselves. It was a really fun time and in 2013 it will be held in Adelaide.

 This wall hanging was taught to us by Designs from Fee and Is one I had to finish aws soon as I could. It now lives on the wall in my lounge room. It is called Plant A Pot of Friendship and Fee taught how to paper piece the border around the pot. I found it a bit challenging but was glad I persisted and finished it.
My new baby is a Janome Horizon and I have had my Ruby for 5 daysnow and she is a dream to use and purs along very quietly.I have started a cushion and small wall hanging and will show you when they are finished. Got to go now as I am going to a quilt show before going to sew more of my Gds quilts at Dawns home, more on that later.
Cheers Jude
