The stitching is begun, it is becoming a string of little flags. So nice all these lovely colours.
Tomorrow more from this project!!!!

Little quilt with rosettes

Last friday I bought a little bag with something nice inside at the "Quilterij"
At the phote you can see what was inside.
A Bossche roll , a matching fat quater, 1/2 meter off white fabric, a bobbin of yarn, buttons and the pattern of a lovely little quilt with rosettes.

A nice Japanese box

A couple of weeks ago I made this wonderful Japanese box. It was a lot of work but also a lot of fun!!!!
This is the front side.






I already made up what is going inside the box!

Exactly........ my Aurifill yarn.














I used striped and chequered fabrics in Pastel colors and the brown fabrics are original Japanese fabrics.
This is the top of the box.

Block Aunt Sukey's choice

The next block is also finished. I used a nice fabric for the center piece. This reminds me of the fact that I bought the fabrics in the USA, and reminds me also at the wonderful time we spent there!!!!!

Another SBS block


I'm also finished a next SBS block , this one is called "Arizona".
And as you can see, I already made a part of the sashing around the block.
So when I finished all the blocks, I can stitch them together right away. It will save me a lot of time in the end.


Last week I finally sandwiched the table runner that is ready since a couple of months or so!
I decided for myself to finish some projects. So I also start quilting as you can see on the picture above.
I wish the work was already done, I'm curious how it is going to look on my table!
