QUILTS – Page 4 – RAINBOW HARE

Bird Organiser

Bird mania continues, here at Rainbow Hare! I’ve finished this organiser for my daughter’s birthday. She’s at uni and has a small room so I hope this will be easy to hang on her wall. I sized the pockets to take A4 sized papers, a pencil case and odds and ends and notes can […]

Gingham Squares

I’ve finished up the Gingham Squares quilt! I quilted in organic straight lines, partly because I thought it would give a softer effect but mainly because I’ve done something to my back (which I hope is slowly getting better) and I couldn’t manage all the bending involved in my usual line marking. I’m not overly […]

Unicorn Days

Speak of the spring, and foison of the year, The one doth shadow of your beauty show, The other as your bounty doth appear; (Shakespeare Sonnet 53) September. Autumn. The evenings draw in and the Mornings are cool and misty. But in the garden it’s a time of abundance. And there’s an exuberance of rich colours – […]

TGIFF

A Friday Finish! This should be the big Taaa Daaa day for the unicorn quilt but, unfortunately, I can’t show you a finished picture. DH and I have come to Portsmouth for a few days to help our eldest daughter move house and to have a mini holiday because tomorrow will be our 28th Wedding […]

Sew Slow

Since Friday, I’ve only managed to put together four centres for my Scrappy? Sew Be It! bee blocks, which I mentioned in last week’s WIP post. I’m hoping to end up with 36 blocks like this – And I’m thinking I’ll get a selection of the stars onto the foundation paper and then do all […]

WIP

I’ve finally succumbed and bought the book and made a start – so the Zakka Along Tea cosy is my newest work in progress. And I finished my Scrappy-Trip-Along! But I haven’t become a total convert to low volume. I’ve also finished (and posted) the oak tree jewellery roll. I do love colour! Happy Wednesday […]

I’ve finished tripping along!

67″ x 67″ This has been a long trip! I started it at the end of January and had it pieced and half quilted by about the end of February and since then it’s always been in the back of my mind that I really should get it finished up. I really don’t like having […]

In Progress

This week I’ve finished a Bee Block – Winged Square for Jess using a tutorial by Amy at During Quiet Time and Jess’ colour choices. I adore this block! And I added the sea bed, bottom layer to this for Jan. I also finished a small wall hanging – Eat, Sleep, Sew! And this is what […]

Winds and Tradewinds

For my second entry in the Bloggers Quilt Festival, I really wanted to enter my Tradewinds Quilt, which I made around Christmas as a gift for my eldest daughter. But, unfortunately, I only had inside, Winter photos, which really didn’t do justice to the beautiful fabrics. 1. Trade Winds Finished Rolled, 2. Trade Winds Finished, 3. […]
