I am not in a hurry to get to the finish line with this quilt, I love the whole process, every step, and stitch. This week has had me finding the perfect fabric for the birds.

It's been a great mail day today! I have received my copy of the Today's Quilter Magazine (issue 38) with my Vintage Nine Patch quilt pattern inside. What a treat it is to see all the lovely pictures they have taken of my quilt.

I have had some time out from the blog......and all other social media. Taking a break from cyber space while I work hard on some secret squirrel projects. I can't wait to show you all the things I have been up to, but unfortunately you will have to wait a while.
However I am getting excited about getting back to some of the projects I have had to put on hold. I will be making some class samples which will be fun, I have several classes booked for later this year. I am looking forward to getting out and about, and sharing with you all.

I have made a lot of progress on my blocks for the BOM 2018 quilt. Making all four corner applique blocks. I now have all the blocks done, ready to sew the quilt top together.

I hope you are all busy starting block one for the BOM 2018. I can't wait to see your progress. I have my fabrics chosen in very traditional colors for this quilt.

Grandmothers Star Quilt Pattern is the latest pattern for the Small Wonders Quilt Pattern Club. This little quilt is made from a simply cute little block called Grandmothers Choice. A few more simple small blocks and careful colour placement finished off the quilt design.

I have been missing in action for a few days....... do you get withdrawal symptoms when you don't get to sew?... I do. Seriously I'm addicted!
Today is a good day, I am in my happy place at the sewing machine. My machine is cleaned and oiled, with a new needle and I am ready to go.

Loving the way this fabric fits perfectly with the Nine patch blocks I have been busy making. Love the subtle colours. I think I'll call this quilt 'Vintage Nine Patch'.

Well, I have to confess! I have a hard time writing blog posts, procrastinating about every little detail. Waiting until I have the perfect content for the 'perfect' post.......... do you do this too?
