I’ve finished adding the extra pieces on the In a Spin quilt so that they look like they’re floating…

… but then I was “In A Spin” as to what to do next. Should I just quilt it as is and add my nice binding? Should I add a coloured border then more grey then the binding?

Or should I add a coloured border then the binding?

I decided to quilt as is and add the binding, so I spent a very warm and humid Christmas Day ironing my quilt top, sewing the backing so that it was wide enough and then starching it and ironing it too.

 

Hope you all had a lovely break.

There could be a prize…

There’s a mistake on this page. If you’re the first person to spot it and comment then I’ll send you a little surprise something.  Good Luck!

I won!!!

Well stranger things have happened I suppose but not much. I actually won something! I joined Catherine’s Place Pinmoor co-op and ordered 200 Pinmoors and 200 long pins. Then I went to add my invoice number to Catherine’s Blog to enter for the Friday Freebie and I won! Want to see my prize? Here is is:

2 x 500m of Presencia Algadon (cotton) thread in colours 206 & 208

Thanks Catherine! I’m looking forward to receiving my prize!

Matching outfits – are they cool or crass? And a prize!

Sew Mama Sew is asking this question as part of their Free Fabric Friday. I’m really not sure what I think about it. I guess there are times when it can be done well just as long as it is a co-ordinated look rather than a “mother and daughter identical dresses” look.

What do you think? Do you have any photos of really great matching outfits or any of the world’s worst matching outfit? I think one that would qualify for that title with me would be one mentioned on the Sew Mama Sew blog – “Dad’s tie and baby’s diaper cover”!!!!

The prize

Pale blue and silver heart fabric

Leave me a comment with a link to an image (one of yours not just a web one) of either the best or the worst matching outfits you have seen and give me permission to publish the photo if you win.

I’ll pick one for the best and one for the worst on Monday, Sydney time. You could win one of these fat quarters:

Feel free to tell me which one you would like if you win and where possible  I’ll try to give you your preference.
