It is my mum's 70th birthday on Monday. I have been collecting these blue fabrics for a while now and saw the pattern in a book by Leanne Beasley...see other post below for the details of it. Leanne did her quilt in a totally different colour way. Im not a blue person but I am very pleased with how the quilt has come up.. I quilted it myself.. I haven't done the best job of it but it will do. I used a variegated thread of different shades of blue....the wadding is a cotton iron on interfacing ..... I have to say this is a fantastic product. I have never used it before and it works wonderfully. When you wash the quilt the fabric comes away from the wadding.
Im also a pincushion lover and Im a fan of Molly Blossom designs
This is the Milliners Hat Pattern made up. I just love working with felt.
This was a trial of the pattern
I just had to take a picture from a few different angles..
Take care
Until the next creation

It looks fantastic!! Gosh what a lucky Mum you have to be able to keep cosy under such a pretty quilt. She'll absolutely love it. Isn't it a great feeling when the binding is finally finished? Just fabulous.
Здравствуй Lisa. Привет с Украины! Прежде всего хочу поздравить твою маму с днем рождения! И пожелать ей всего хорошего! Мне очень понравилось стеганое одеяло. Очень красиво! Игольница очень нежная, романтичная!
Lisa, your Mum's quilt is gorgeous. I hope she has a wonderful 70th birthday, she will love her quilt.
Where did you get the iron on wadding, have never heard of it.
Those felt pincushions are gorgeous.
Happy birthday to her!
I like the new style of your blog very much...
Your mom is going to love her quilt!
Your Mum's quilt is stunning - I love those blues you've used. Your wee pincushion is SO cute, a real wee sweetie.
I hope your Mum loved her gorgeous new quilt.
That pincushion is adorable.. I reckon I could make it without a pattern even!
If I ever get time that is!
