Pickledish Quilt - Baby Cot Quilt



I finished this baby quilt yesterday using Aneela Hoey's Pickledish Quilt pattern.  It was a fun pattern to work with and now I'm thinking of attempting a larger one.  Like most quilters, there is always an endless amount of scraps left over, which is all this quilt needs!

Hello Winter

Winter has arrived early in Melbourne this year, so last night I decided to make this Hot Water Bottle Cover.  

a little pink quilt...


Having returned to the workforce full time now for three months - after 10 wonderful years at home with my 3 kids - I'm slowly finding time to sew again. Tuesday nights have turned into sewing nights with me sewing in the toy room, whilst the kids are playing and watching TV. It's a nice way to wind down after a busy day at work. Last week I made a little quilt for a girl turning 10 years old, using mostly Joel Dewberry's Sparrow Collection fabrics and some of Tanya Whelan's Ava Rose fabrics.
