Little Red Riding Hood Baby Quilt

I really enjoyed making this baby quilt.  It made me realise how much I have missed sewing and hope this will keep me inspired to start another project. Fabrics used are designed by  Tasha Noel, called Little Red Riding Hood for Riley Blake Designs.  

This is the back of the quilt

Little Red Riding Hood Baby Quilt

YAY! I have found my sewing mojo again and I've started to make a baby quilt using Tasha Noel's new fabric called ''Little Red Riding Hood'' for Riley Blake Designs.  This collection of prints are just adorable and can't wait to make more things out of it...

YAY! Labyrinth Quilt Finished!

It's always such an awesome feeling to finish a quilt, whether it took me a year to make or just a few days, there is just something really satisfying quilting that last stitch.  Last night I finished my Labyrinth quilt, which means I can start on another one today!  

This quilt was made using Red Pepper's Labyrinth quilt pattern. I can highly recommend her patterns, just so easy to follow and great photos. Fabrics used for this quilt are a mix of Denyse Schmidt, Heather Ross and Aneela Hoye beautiful fabrics!

Just Stay Little Quilt - yet to be finished!



I just adore Sarah Jane's ''Children At Play'' collection.  So much so that I just had to make a quilt for our guest bed in the kitchen!  


Here is the finished quilt top, now I just need to put it together and quilt it! 



Far Far Away Quilt for Mia


I been holding on to my little fat quarter stash of Far Far Away fabrics from Heather Ross, not knowing what to make and feeling too scared to even cut the gorgeous prints...  I finally did it and here is a quilt for my daughter Mia!

Pinwheel Quilt

I finished this quilt last November, but somehow forgot to add it to my blog, so here it is!  

The quilt is a Pinwheel Quilt with mostly Moda Recess fabric, but also some Flea Market Fancy & Michael Miller ''Rockets''.  For backing I used an IKEA Numbers fabric which I just love.  I used Michael Miller ''Ta Dot'' for binding.  


I used Thimble Blossoms "WILD THING" pattern but added borders to each block.

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!
