Fun Year!

Squealy has had an awesomly fun year with the fabulous Liz and Lina at Wombats 3 Year Old Preschool in Page.

Here are some of my favourite snaps from his school photo package.

Sashico Owls 2

Haven't had much time for crafting with the move looming. But here is a quick snap of my first panel.

This technique is a breeze, really quick and easy.

Should start tomorrow using the navy thread. I've decided to use the navy on all the outlines of the leaves.

Box Fun!

Our poor girl. She's stressing out about the move.

We won't leave you behind darling. Just in case though, she's camping out in any boxes she finds.

Fuzzy's First...

... lost tooth, well two actually. He's lost his two bottom teeth.

Apparently "the tooth fairy is nocturnal, so no one knows what she looks like!"

hehehe He is such a clever little thing.

Missing You.

Husband Deluxe is having at day at the snow with his mates.

Fuzzy Wuzzy is missing him heaps.

Here is the lovely card he decided to make for his Daddy. It is, apparently Sonic the Hedgehog Mega Collection.

How freakin' cute!

Basic Grey Fabric... swoon!

Guess what I found at the Craft Show last weekend? A lush new jelly roll in the most beautiful moda fabric: Blush by Basic Grey (BG).

Now being a scrapbooker and a quilter this is like a dream come true. I LOVE BG papers and now I can make myself a funky quilt using that range.

When I got home I was also nosing around on the Moda website and found this gorgeous pattern using the Blush fabric. *yay* I am so excited. Natalia Bonner is a clever girl! I can't wait to make this quilt.

The best bit is that my lovely Mum decided to buy the fabric for me. She said she wanted to get me a present. I love my Mumma. She also bought herself a kit to make a quilt.

Can't wait to get all crafty together in our new craft room in the new house. So this is a taster of my next project. I have to finish my pillow cases to go with my sushi roll quilt, finish my owl sashico panels and complete Squealy's telly quilt.

I guess this will motivate me to get my skates on sooner rather than later :-)

Sashico Owls

I've started a project for the new house. 3 beautiful Japanese Sashico wall panels featuring owls. They are so adorable! I'll be quilting these the traditional way using sashico needles and gorgeous pearl thread in white and navy, using the navy for the leaves and the white everywhere else. This is a really quick and easy hand quilting technique. Should have these done very quickly indeed. Will update as I make progress :)
