Giveaway

Hi all

I just thought this morning as I was washing this little Dolls quilt that it might be nice to give it a new home.
It was made by me in 1994 and has just been washed and is ready to go.


If you like it or know a little person that would love it for their doll, leave me a comment and I will draw a name next Sunday.
Also check out Toni as she has started putting her nine patch blocks together, it looks fantastic.

Quick post...

I am going out to launch with my Saturday sewing group and tonight my husband Christmas Party, also trying to get quilts finished and so on.

Have not done much sewing for myself, but only one more class to teach for this year and a few more quilts and I will have a bit of time for myself. Mind you there are already quilts in waiting for after Christmas, well it keeps me of the streets.... big grin.

The top two are customer quilts and I believe Christmas gifts, some very lucky people out there receiving these beautiful quilts.

The little one below I made for my daughter in law to give to her friend for her baby shower today.

Better go and get ready.

Oh I am also going to start the next mystery quilt with Bonnie K. Hunter, check out her site here.

She is one amazing lady, I love the way she makes do with things and re-uses fabrics, wonderful scrap quilts.

bye for now

Some quilts done and changing my sewing room...

We are painting and have started in one of my sewing rooms, it will all be almost white, we have painted my quilt racks and now I am looking for new furniture. Once you start in one room you soon know that it doesn't stop there.
I also got new white blinds.
Have started a nine patch quilt and love the way it is turning out.

The quilts below are customer quilts, the blue and white one is a gift for a teacher, lucky lady.

Better go for now.

Thanks for visiting

Hera marker...

Below are some images about a wonderful tool, I am not a big gadget user but love my Hera marker.
It leaves a shiny indent on you fabrics ( you have to use a bit of pressure when drawing the lines) and it works on all light/dark/plain/prints. It doesn't damage the fabrics and stay there till the item gets wash or used.
The one on the left is an old version and the other one a Clover product, the are available at any good P&Q shop that sells clover products.
Now there is nothing in it for me, I just love the product.
My pictures aren't the best, but it does work.

The other pictures are some more customer quilts and the second round of nine patches from the swap.

Have a great day, I am going to quilt now.

cheers

Christine

Swap all sent

I have swapped the first set of 12 and they are ready to go in the mail, now my printer isn't working so I can't print off any details regarding each person in the swap ( by hand it takes to long) On my sidebar there are the names and if you click on it you get to the persons blog and find their email details. Otherwise leave a comment on my blog if you wanted to thank anyone.




Anyway these are the twelve lovely quilters in this group:

Lurline
Jane
Leah

cheers
Christine

Another Doll quilt....

Good morning all

I have made another doll quilt using scraps out of my bins ( I cut leftovers into certain sizes and keep them stored)

Both the dolls are gifts from my older sister, the girl one is a reproduction of a German doll limited edition, it is Lison No. 42, she wears the clothes that are traditional clothes for little girls in Hamburg, the Tartan dress is made using the Tartan for that area. I too used to have Navy Woolen Coat with a white collar. She is very beautiful and her eyes seem to follow you around the room.

The little boy is a one off "Unikat" (the mould is destroyed in front of the purchaser by the Artist) He is as heavy as a child and is wearing real baby's clothes. The Artist is very well known in Germany and has made about 40 dolls for my other sister ( she is a very avid Doll collector)

Thought you might like to see my babies.

The fabric on the chairs was lovingly folded and stacked by my favourite little girl Sophie ( she is two and loves playing with fabrics and thread

Hope you all have a great weekend.

Christine

ps. I have also found this blog Quilter's Trail and it gives you all the info on the event with details on all the shops taking part, well worth checking out if you are in Queensland.

Nine Patch update...

Ok only four more sets to come and we are ready to roll.

The way I am going to swap is this:
I will have two groups of 12, you will receive one each of your blocks plus 66 new ones. A total of 72 different nine patches.
Each group of twelve will be at random, all the blocks are fantastic.

I like to say thank you for all who have committed and stuck with it. Not long now and I can post them each to you.

cheers
Christine

Today a bit of unplanned sewing for me....

Hi all

I have had fabrics from the Nancy Kirk Collection for a number of years and cut a lot of them in to squares and had made a lot of half square triangle units.

Anyway cut a long story short I just started sewing them today without a plan and just added and cut and used what I had.

I made this top:

Then I made this little table runner and even pieced the back, so all the fabrics have been used.

I am so happy, I am going to work through all these funny little projects I have floating about.

Well that's the plan anyway,big grin.

Kate from my Nina Patch swap send her blocks today and included these four lovely coasters for me, thank you Kate.

Julia send me a couple of gorgeous fat 1/4's that I have put in a very safe place and now have to remember where? Thank you Julia, I am sure I will find them soon.

I also finished this little Beatrix Potter quilt, it has been in the cupboard since our little Sophie was born, well it is finished now, only took a few hours to complete.

In the mail today my Kaffe fabrics that I ordered from Cow Lane Patchwork for $ 10 per meter.

Anyway only a few more sets of nine patches to come and I can do the swap.

cheers

Christine

2nd anniversary

Well I can't believe I have been blogging for two years.
It has been a lot of fun and I feel very lucky to be in touch with so many creative and lovely people.
Thank you all for blogging and sharing, it has made me stay in touch with old friends ( Hi Lurline), as well as find people that have moved ( Hi Cathy) and make new friends ( Hi Robyn).
and many more.

I know there are family members in Germany that read my blog as well as past customers from when I used to work in a Patchwork shop.
While I am not the best writer, you know what I mean.... some people have a talent with words - not me. Could be because English is my second language, I still enjoy sharing my Patchwork & Quilting journey with you all.

Can't have a birthday without a gift, can you?
My giveaway will be two of my patterns, Sleep Baby Sleep (Rocking Horse red/blue one) and the 3D Bow Tie Quilt ( in the header), if you like to be in the draw leave a message and if you like put a link on your blog I will do the draw in two weeks time.

Rain, rain glorious rain....

You should see it and hear it, we have been waiting a long time for this wonderful rain, our garden is singing with joy.

I am sitting here in the kitchen with my laptop, DH has made dinner and I am enjoying a glass of Merlot. The sound of the rain is just soooooo woooonderfulllll, just keep raining, please.

Have been quilting a couple of quilts for customers and have another one on the machine

Bought some things for my machine and am using them, tell you what it is like everything you always need something else.

The red quilt is a Bonnie K. Hunter design called Carolina Crossroads and the pattern is in her book . You can find it on her website www.quiltville.com I have made one myself and quilted three for customers. I had Bonnie's permission to teach a class in the second term this year and the quilts turned out just lovely.

Bye for now

Sleep Baby Sleep

Hi all

This is the little quilt I had entered in the show, as well as my Jelly star quilt.
The small quilt won 2nd place in the professional small quilt category.
I thought I had a picture when it was finished, well the binding is the same blue as I used for the applique. I love this little quilt, but found it looked completely out of place at the show, it just didn't fit in with all the other not so traditional quilts.

Also the small quilt category doesn't separate pieced quilts from applique quilts.

I suppose I make quilts that I like and they will never be art quilts, I like quilts to be bright, clear in colour fresh looking and traditional.

The quilt was found in a book as a picture by Lurline ( the original was made by girls at a college in the 1920/30). Lurline loved it and drafted the applique, she bought the background fabric and found a red but wasn't happy with what she could get at the time. so when Lurline swapped her drawings and background with me for backing fabric for one of her quilts and this is how I came to make this quilt.

I know Lurline still loves the quilt and we have talked about it and it will be a pattern, she will be the first to get one from me.
Might even have to put a little gift in the mail when I go shopping with my gift voucher that I won, but don't tell her. The sponsor for my prize is Liiisa Dawson from The Quilters Corner at Keppera in Brisbane, thank you Liisa.

Have a great day.
Christine

ps. we didn't get a catalogue this year, so I am missing that in my collection.

Me again

I have finished my first block form the CWBQ and have been buying fabrics,tztztz as if I haven't got enough on the go.

Also found these blocks in my UFO pile, they are from the Poppy Quilt .

Enjoy

Christine

Not posting again until tomorrow.

Swap done..

Well my quilt is going to a new home, thank you Jane for swapping with me.
check out Jane's site there are some wonderful fabrics for you to buy and great prices too.

cheers
Christine

Another swap....

Ok I have this quilt that I made a few years ago it is about 80inches square,the fabrics are Bed of Roses by Robyn Pandolph. The quilt has been used and is a little faded, but in very good condition.




Would you like to swap with me?

Now if there is someone in the States that would like this I thought you could use the Global Priority International bags ( I think the $ 10 bag holds about 6-8yards).


I would like to swap for some 1930's or civil war prints or Kaffe Fassett.

Anyone else let me know what you would like to swap this for, I am going to make a scrappy double wedding ring and would love to use lots of different 1930's prints.

cheers
Christine


ps. swapping one will give me the excuse of having to make a new quilt.

Brisbane show..this week

Hi all


yes it is that time again, the Brisbane show is on again and I am going on Wednesday and looking forward to it.


If you like a quick quilt to making check out my Bow tie Quilt( this is not just a bow tie, it is 3D) at the Patches stand, I have finished my first pattern and you can get it there, either just the pattern or a fabric pack and pattern.




After the show you can get the pattern from me as well.


Another quilt that is just so much fun ( I only quilted this one, I think it is by Natalie Ross designs ) the kit is available at the Peppermint stitches stand, I think stand J20.





If you go I hope you have fun.

cheers
Christine

time is running so fast.. oh and my 150th post

I can't believe how quick the year is going, it must be because I am getting older.

I always look forward to the cooler weather and then I blink and it is hot again and still not much rain, it really gets me down to see everything so dry and sometimes I wish I could move somewhere greener.

Having said that I would never move away from my children, you might not know but we came to Australia 26 years ago with two little toddlers. I had no idea then what we did to our family back home, but now that I am older and have grandchild I know had sad our families must have felt.

I can't stop the children moving and won't but I said to them if they all leave Brisbane we will move too. Haha I don't think it will happen.

Have been quilting and here are some pictures.

Hope you are all well and have time to do things you love to do.

Before I forget, leave a comment on my 150th post and I will have a giveaway, hm I will draw the winner on the 30th October and you can win 500g of my scraps (not to smaller pieces)and a little other surprise.

cheers

Christine

Nine Patch swap and Sewing group and PIF...

Good morning all...

First to all the Nine Patch Swappers, there are four weeks left till beginning of November when it is time to send your parcel.

Please, include a self addressed and pre paid envelope, it will otherwise make it to costly for me to send them back. Hope you are all having fun making the last few and look forward to receiving them to swap them and return them to you.

I still have to stitch a couple of month worth and will try and get them done in the next few days.

Now to all the girls interested in my sewing group, time is running faster then I thought this year and I will have to make a start after the new year, I will keep all your email addy's and when I have a date sorted I will email you all and you can decide if you would like to come.

Sorry but it is just a delay.

I am still hand quilting my quilt for the show in Brisbane and have to have it done by Tuesday, oh oh not sure if I will make it.

Also finishing a couple of PIF's that will need to be posted soon too.

The pictures are of some quilts I have been quilting.

Have a great weekend and take care

Christine

Sunday wedding

Hi all

While I don't put personal photos of my family on the blog, I thought I share a few from the wedding.

We had a wonderful day, the dust storm had just settled so the weather was beautiful, th sun was out and it wasn't to hot either.

The children got married at St. Stephans Cathedral in Brisbane and the reception was at St Lucia, oh it was special.

Christine

Dust storm....

This is what it looked like out of my sewing window at lunch time, lucky I closed the house early and covered what I could on the patio, but my car ( normally black) is covered in a fine red dust.

We have been in Australia for 26 years and never had anything like this in Brisbane.

cheers

Christine

Applique and some piecing

Well, after I made my Bow tie quilt using Kaffe Fassett fabrics I decided to use the leftovers to piece this little quilt top (inspired by Red Pepper Quilts) using some very old linen that was given to me last time I was in Germany.

I will now quilt it just with straight lines and maybe my daughter will use it for the new arrival, yes she is having her second bub in February next year.

Also made a start on the Civil War Bridal Quilt using the Honey,Pewter and Mustard range of fabrics, I got mine at Patches/Indooroopilly as I had my eye on them for a little while.

Quilt washing day at my house...

Well it was time that I washed these two quilts, I try and wash all my quilts even if they haven't been used once a year. They get washed more often if in use.

Now I never pre-wash fabrics and I just wanted to show you how much dye comes out of the fabric even after the quilts have been washed more then once. So to me pre-washing fabrics doesn't give me the guarantee they won't run anymore and I like using the fabrics as they come from the shop. All my quilts are washed after completion.

I always put two or three colour catchers in with the wash, the quilts are washed in a warm cycle (40 degree) front loader, they are spin dried at about 800rpm. Spinning out the water will reduce the stress on the seams when hanging your quilt to dry.

My quilts are dried outside in the shade and I will rotate them a couple of times until almost dry, they then come in and stay on the spare bed till the next day.

On Sunday I will be having High Tea at Joseph Alexander here in Brisbane, it is part of my to be daughter in laws Hens Party weekend.

Hope you all have a great weekend and thank you to all you lovely ladies who gave me a gentle push to get motivated to sew.

cheers

Christine

09.09.09

Well what an interesting date, you know I love dates.

My daughter was 19 on the 19/09/1999, we talked about it when she was born and it came around really quick

That is all for me for now.

cheers
Christine

ps. I need a push to start some of the quilts I want to make..... just a gentle push

Chelsea Buns

Some of you wanted the recipe, well here it is:

For the Filling:
50g soft brown sugar
50g caster sugar
50g unsalted softened butter
zest of 1/4 lemon
100g currants

For the Dough:
150g plain white flour
300g strong white flour ( I just used white bread flour)
1 tsp. fine sea salt
75g milk not too cold
75g water warm
2 medium eggs
50g golden syrup
2 tsp. fresh yeast, crumbled

To serve:
melted butter for greasing the tin
caster sugar for dredging

For the Filling: Combine all the ingredients apart from the currants until you have a soft paste. Leave this in a warm (21-25C) place while you make the dough.

For the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the two flours with the salt. In another bowl or jug, place the milk, water, eggs, golden syrup and fresh yeast. Whisk until smooth. Pour the liquid in with the dry ingredients and stir with your hands until you have a soft, sticky dough. Scrape any dough from your fingers into to the bowl,cover and leave for 10 minutes.

Rub 1 tsp of corn or olive oil on the work-surface and knead the dough on the oiled surface for 10 seconds, ending with the dough in a smooth, round ball.
Return the dough to the bowl and leave for a further 10 minutes. Knead the dough once more on the oiled surface, returning it to a smooth ball. Place it back in the bowl, cover and leave for 1 hour in a warm place.

Line a 30cm square or round cake tin with a non stick baking paper on the base and brush the paper and sides with melted butter. Lightly dust the work surface with flour and roll the dough out into a 35cm square. Crumble the filling over the dough and press it down into the surface, then scatter the currants evenly across the dough. Roll the dough up tightly from one end. Cut into nine equal pieces, place these (three across by three down)in the tin. Cover the tin with a cloth and leave to rise for 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 210C Uncover the tin and dredge the surface of the dough with caster sugar.
Bake in the centre of the oven for 30 minutes, reduce the heat to 190C and bake for a further 15-20 minutes, until the buns are a good brown colour on top. Leave to cool on wire rack for 10 minutes. Brush the top of the bun with sugar glaze and serve warm

Hope I didn't leave anything out.

cheers

Classes and another quilt

Hi all

I have decided to do a few classes from home, as I teach mainly on the other side of the City and it does not always suit everyone.

If you check out my side bar under classes you can see dates and if you like more info regarding cost please email me.

I am going to keep the classes to 4 maximum .

The quilt below is another customer quilt made by a lovely Lady I have met many years ago as she started her patchwork journey when I was working in a Brisbane shop. It is for her sons 21st Birthday, the car fabric is Holden and has all the different models and Cities and Towns from around Australia printed on it. Great quilt, she also pieced the backing. A lot of fun and she just wanted meander in a variegated thread.

Have quilted a few others and forgot to take some photos, must get some as there was a wonderful black/gold version of Carolina Crossroads, as well as two other pretty floral ones that are going to be gifts for my customers sisters ( aren't they lucky).

Will do a few more quilts over the weekend as I have some deadline for them. another busy week next week.

I think the car fabric was purchased at Patches/Indooroopilly
cheers
Christine
ps. for all who are interested in my sewing group, I am currently working out a date to start and will email you all soon.

And the winner is...

Julia you are the winner of my giveaway congratulations, please email your details so I can get your prize in the mail tomorrow.

Thank you for all bloggers that have entered and I do appreciate all your lovely comments and visits to my blog.

Good evening...

It didn't get as hot as today, so that was good.

I did a bid of hand quilting, have decided to put another quilt in to the upcoming quilt show in Brisbane, wasn't going to but I think I can get the quilt finished.

So I will do x amount each night and should get it done in time, can't share the quilt as yet....

The next two quilts are customer quilt, the green one is someones beginner sampler and the other one Carolina Crossroads from my last term class. I had permission from Bonnie K. Hunter to teach the class last term.

The next little quilt is a kit you can get at http://www.patches.com.au/, it was a fun little one to quilt.

cheers

Christine

Sunny Saturday

Dear husband had the oven on today to bake bread so I thought I will make some Chelsea Buns, have not made them before but they sure smell and look very yummy. We will have to wait until they are cool to try some.


we are going for breakfast to our daughters place in the morning, so if there are any left (very big grin, I am on a diet)we will take some.


Frank came to close and was covered in flour, always hopeful on scoring a bit of food.










I also would like to share my favourite Cook Book with you, it has wonderful old fashioned recipes in it with wonderful pictures and I love the cover too.



I have also done some more quilting and stitching on my applique, I am going to start two new applique quilts, will have to check on the names, but a few of the girls are doing them, Lurline, Kathy, Janet. I go my background and am ready to start.





I am going to have a couple of friends over on Monday and hopefully get a bit of sewing done. Mind you it is going to be 35 degrees and we are still in Winter..... yuck.





Nearly forgot, I also received my other swap gift in the mail, the one for the felt kit, aren't they just beautiful 1930's prints?

Bye for now


Christine

Hi all

I have this project I started ages ago and know I won't be finishing it, so I would like to swap with someone.

The picture shows you what I have done so far, the little top is at this stage 42 x 36 inches, I have more fabric of the black print and the left over fabrics from the nine patches (there are 11 fabrics and they started as 35cm pieces or fat quarters), I have used from each of them what you can see in the picture.

I have been sidetracked and must get back to quilting, anyway I will quickly show you the bag I made. Bought the pattern and just had to have it.

Sunday another lovely day...

Well here is the oven on again for a weekend of cooking, this time we had roast chicken and backed potatoes, it sure was lovely.

As you can see our little dog is never far from the oven as he might miss catching a little treat.

The fabrics I bought the other day, they are so cute and fresh.

Hope you all have a great week.

Christine
