I realise it's been a while siince I've posted about my mystery BOM 2011 from Fat Quarter Shop. We are nine months into the BOM and I'm patiently (NOT) waiting for block 10 to arrive....3 more blocks to go and as I already have the finishing kit, once those 3 arrive I can put the whole top together.
I've loved making these blocks, they are all so pretty and the fabrics are divine......we're using Strawberry Fields by Fig tree Quilts for Moda. These are the nine blocks I've made so far, please excuse the colour, the light is dreadful here with it beeing so gloomy and overcast....
On to other things.....I'm ready to quilt a baby quilt, ready to quilt my nieces quilt, am pieceing another VERY special baby quilt, am piecing a man's quilt for May and am making a special quilt for June.......busy, busy, busy.......I hope I can keep up with myself :)
In between all the quilting and piecing, I have been teaching myself to crochet. You can find lots of online resources to help with this, but I am using these videos from Craftyminx, they've been so helpful and after I've done some quilting today, I will start learning to make a granny square. On Monday I learned to sew in the round, this is my first attempt....
....I just need to find my wool needle to finish off and sew in the ends :)
Now I hear the sewing machine calling me......enjoy your day :)
