Where have I been hiding?

Well good afternoon!


I can not believe it has been 6 weeks without me really blogging here and finishing this quilt blog post!  Life has become so busy of late I am not sure I even know what sleep is.                                    

Star Fusion being quilted!
I will complete the blog for The Bakers dozen block of the month in the next few days.  My work schedule has me now working five days so it only leaves me with two days off to do all of the mundane things.  I must admit i have achieved quite a few things in the last few weeks.  I will just give you a few photos in this blog post to do a catch up.

This will be one of the last blogs I will do on here as I am finding I am unable to do them on my iPad as blogger is not doing any upgrades for that medium.  I will move my blog to my website.  I have done one blog here to find out how it looked and I was very pleased with the result.  I will continue to leave links to the new posts here.  Therefore people will still be able to see what I am doing and not miss out on anything.

There is one thing I will be completing today that I am unable to show you until it is presented to the owners.

Without any further delay here is a few photos of my achievements and we will catch up over the next few days.   Beware the posts might just happen quicker than we expect.

So I hope you all enjoy this and I am now enjoying my free motion quilting so I am hoping of finish quite a few UFOs in the near future.   If you are nearby the Cranbourne botanical Gardens this week stop by and look at all the lovelies on display.


Until a few days time

Have fun and stay creative
