Its been some time since my last post and quite a lot has happened in that time.Our son is to be a Daddy, our eldest daughter is back with her husband and I have been to visit my friend Linda.She looked really ill and was in a lot of pain but we hd an hour together then she had to go back into hospital. She also gave me her Embellisher, I had been trying to save for one but she kindly gave me hers (on permanent loan) Anyway I tried it out last night for the first time, learned how to change needles before I could start then proceded to break two.I'm sure I'll get the hang of it with practice and Linda says I'll be hooked, we'll see.I'm working on a quilt for Loch Lommond show 2011 using my favourite block, half square triangles, the colours are Red, Black and White. I made up a sample a long time ago, in these colours, and laid it aside I printed out entry forms and started to work on a top but it is hard work, not really coming together, so I stopped that one tried a few other blocks then found the old sample and decided to roll with it, its quite strong colour wise and has a little twist so I hope they like it.I had to start WORKING on soomething or this new studio would never have been organised, well getting into some kind of order. The next thing I will attempt is to post photos on this blog, wish me luck. Call in again

Hi mum!!
ReplyDeleteI am now following you, so everytime you post something I should get a notification emal, then I can come and see.
When you registered here, you will have had to enter an email address, this is the one used for this blog ( and probably other things as well ) if you wanted to change it it will be in this blogs "settings" or "account" something along those lines.
If you continue to use this one as your main blog the other one should just fizzle out, I wouldn't worry about it, this seems to be a good one, its supported by google which is always a good thing.
Your new quilt sonds fab!! it's good to put a modern twist on things, it should appeal to a broader spectrum of people, you should see if you can put photo's of it and your other work on here??
luv ya xx
