I've been quilting since 2013. This blog is my personal quilting diary, that charts my progress (and occasional regression) from the start. I use it so I can look back at my past projects...and hopefully see my skills improve!

Lap Quilt Finished
Have found time to finish a lap quilt made up from blocks completed as part of the Intermediate Patchwork course I finished recently. The course was great fun!

Playing with TAP
I ordered a pack of Transfer Artist Paper last week out of curiosity and without any real plan in mind. Although I am busy making bears for the Teddies Worldwide online show at the end of the month, I found time to play with it.
I used a photo of three teddies I designed and made last year as the centre piece of my pinkeep. I used 1930 reproduction fabrics scrappily to frame the photo. I added silk ribbon, mother of pearl buttons, beads and lace to complete the heart shaped pinkeep.
I really enjoyed creating a little crazy quilt. I adapted a pattern of Allie Aller's for the project. The photo isn't great. There is some reflection from the glass.

Last week was my son James' first wedding anniversary. I made them a memento of their wedding day and placed it is a picture frame.
