Colourful Cars!

Bought this beautiful bright fabric at Cottage Patch. Great quilt for boys! Didn't feel like cutting them up into individual cars as I didn't want to spoil the picture. So I simply cut them into 4 x 6" wide stripes lengthwise and added bright borders all around.

Played around with the 3 main colours - red, yellow & blue. The 1st border was a bright 2" red, followed by a 2" sunny yellow and finished it off with a 5" bright blue polkadot fabric.

Backing fabric was a complimentary bold stripes from IKEA - perfect combo! and the binding was a bold solid fabric.

Bright & Big - Gorgeous!

A is for for Annabelle

A lovely ABC Alphabet panel from "A is for Annabelle". I've cut them up and put 2" plain baby blue sashing in between.


1st border was 2" plain light baby pink and finishing border was a 5.5" complimentary darker pink printed fabric.

Backing fabric was also from the same line - lighter printed pink with pictures of baby things in circles. Really nice & fun! Added the same plain light baby pink all around.

Pretty big! Fits my teenager's bed beautifully!

So glad with how it turned out! Hope you like it too A.

Jungle Book!

It was a lovely jungle-animal-fabric I came across in BERNINA and just had to have. Cut them up into 9" squares and put 1.5" dark brown sashings in between.

The dark brown gave it a darker look, so to lighten up I went for a very pale blue-ish green polkadot in between the sashings and as the finishing 6" border.

I actually like the very pale blue-ish green fabric . . . (my daughter said its all wrong!).

Went for printed brown on white fabric for its backing and used up the rest of the dark brown for binding.

I like it. Do you? Good for a boy, no?

Farm animals in Pink & Brown

Found this lovely animal fabric in lite pink and browns, at Bernina's. Too pretty to cut up so made it into a center piece and simply quilted following its block.

Simply added a 3" brighter shade of solid pink and chanced upon this gorgeous brown bubbles fabric. Immediately fell in love with it and made it into a 5" finishing border.

Backing fabric was a quieter white with brown print fabric and binding was my left over shocking pink fabric.

Love how it turned out!

M's Order

Its the same lovely "Little Dancer - Pretty Ballerina" panel. Another request. This time for a single bed for a special little girl . . . .

. . . . and her name is "Ameerah Tasneem".

For such a size, I used up 2 panels. The 1st border was a 3" solid pink fabric and the finishing border was a 7" multicoloured pinkish bubbles fabric, with 4 different corners. Which I alternated with the ballet shoes & fairy wand.

Decided on the multicoloured pinkish bubbles as backing fabric and binding was a bright solid pink.

Just what little girls are made of . . . . :-)
Its nice and B.I.G. and fits a single bed nicely. Hope you and your lil' one will like it M!

OWL bags!

Look at what I found? These lovely owl fabric bags!!

This one is a sling bag / cross body bag. The "feather" on this one is made of plain coloured fabrics. And just look at its 'feet' - so cute! Adore the details on the owl's face.

And this one is a bag-pack. The "feather" on this one is made of colourful batik-like printed fabric. Details on the eye & face is just lovely!

Bought one each for my 2 girls. They're made in Thailand :-).

M's Order

M asked if I could please sew the baby's name on . . . . 'Zara Dhiya Imani' - what a lovely name.

It was the Summer Blooms panel (the 3rd one I'm making). I simply added a 2" solid baby pink, next was a 3.5" lovely yellow striped fabric, and finished off with a 6" tiny pink polkadot fabric.

Backing fabric was a perfect pink flowery print and binding fabric was light solid yellow. PERFECT.

M also wanted 2x matching baby pillows and a matching bear. Used up all my tiny pink polkadots!

Here it is. All in a set, ready to go. Hope you like it M!

Of turtles & caterpillars . . .

Bought this lovely panel with turtles & caterpillars online from snazzy & such. Couldn't resist it really :-)


Teamed it up with a 1.5" pale solid blue first, next was a 3" perfect striped yellow and finished it up with a 5" bright blue tiny polkadot.

Backing fabric was yet another shade of pale bluish-green polkadot and binding was the same bright blue polkadot.
