Fabric delivery!

Thanks Suzettes for these delicious yards of colourful fabric goodness that arrived today!  I decided on Hello Betty from Chloe's Closet after having a charm pack of this design earlier on.  I'm so excited to get started once I decide on a design.

A blast from the past!

Isn't this the cutest little piece of machinery from the 50's!  I saw it and had to have it xx

More hexagons...

I started sewing some more hexagons last night.  I'm not sure what I'll do with them yet as i only have a small amount of this fabric.

Pin cushion

I had a few leftover hexagons which I made into a pincushion. 

In and Out quilt finished!



I finished the In and Out quilt over the weekend.  This is going to be a great playmat for my girls :)

ABC quilt



My 4 year old daughter requested this quilt.  It was made using the American Jane kit called ABC Punctuation (or something like that).  The fabric is the Punctuation range.

Lots of little hexagons

I'm also working on my first hand sewn project using the English paper piecing technique.  This will be a long process but hopefully the final outcome will be worth it.  Here is a bit of a preview :)  I'm using the hello Betty range of fabrics by Chloe's Closet which is a pretty 1930's inspired fabric.
