Out and about

Took advantage of a few hours dry weather and sunshine to get out after all the recent heavy rain.  Thursday was a visit to Waterfall Gully and Saturday morning whale watching at Basham's beach near Port Elliot on the Fleurieu Peninsular

Forget to show you the I-Pad cover.  I quilted round the little owls to make them stand out and added meandering in between

2nd quilt in a week

Did my first Jelly Roll Race quilt with Linda from Patchwork Cow in McLaren Vale.  I used a Moda JR called Morris Modernized and I'm really pleased with the way it turned out.


The matching yardage isn't due out for a couple of months so I will have to wait to border, back and bind it!

Phew, that was quick!

Started my Quilt of the Month on Friday and finished the top today.  Its called Candy Rose (designed by Rachelle Denneny) and used 1 charm pack and 1 jelly roll (Marmalade) + yardage



 
...............     and with the left-overs I will prbably make a cot quilt and a small table mat!
the colours are slightly better out of the bright sunlight
