The 'other' quilt Im working on...



Well the title says the 'other' quilt Im working on...its really one of the many quilts Im working on.. I wouldnt like to list how many projects I have on the go as it is rather embarrassing.

This is the first block for Seasons of the Heart by Leanne Knell for Petals and Patches. I had a bit of a disaster with the corner blocks so I had to use something from my stash to fix that up. Im a bit naughty when I make things from patterns. I find it very hard to stick to it and I go off and do my own thing.

Also here are the Shepherd Bush Stocking I have done... as I said in the last post I just have to make them up. 3 made and 3 more to go...one for each child.

Also I have been meaning to show you some of my beading creations. I really enjoy making these bracelets. They are made with needle and thread..which I love to work with...



These are made from shell... Paua shell and a mother of peral type shell..



This is called a Garden Bracelet.. I have made many of these in many different colour ways and given them away as gifts.

So thats me for today....

You are so clever - I love all the things you make! And I think of you when I use my little zip bag and hussif - which is almost every day!

Oh Lisa;

I wish you weren't on the other side of the world. I'd love you to teach me to quilt, to bead, to cross stitch, to embroider...if only...

You've been holding out on us my talented friend...your bracelets are awesome! You are "all that AND ten tea biscuits"! - just an expression we have here to say you ROCK!

I love your other quilt, Lisa. The colours are my favourites and the little saying on this block is perfect. It's going to look really lovely when it's finished.

The SB stocking is looking good. the girl's hair on Natasha's stocking is amazing. Good luck with the remaining 3 :>)
I love the bracelets, they are stunning. The pink one is really pretty.
