At last i can put my legs up and seat for awhile to update..

No good reason for not posting in this small space of mine for quite sometime..Blame it on the PRU13
Every time i seat in front of this lappy i am glued to facebook sharing the countless video of politicians harping for votes and not forgetting the multitude of statements made by fellow bloggers either supporting a particular party or bickering another......Well i rather keep my views to myself and quietly throw my vote when the time comes...

And now for some sewing updates....A lot of curtains are ready to hang.But i will only post the pics once they go up the trek.Besides that I finally manage to complete 4 hexy pillow covers for this quilt and this.

My fling with green...

I started off sewing this kitchen aid cover by combining just the pot/mug motif fabric with the multi -colored diamond.But somehow along the way i realized i need to put more zest in these cozies...so that is why you now see stark green on the apron and the pot cozy..And voila.....




Introducing the cozies from left :rice cooker,toaster,tea pot,blender and apron

Another ginormous hexy quilt...124 inch x 86 inch




Looks like its done and finished...Awww...but its not completed..Need to hand quilt at all the floral hexies.Take a close look.. 

At this stage only the green hexy has been stitched..Need to do the floral part so that the patchwork is tightly anchored to the fiber and the backing fabric
