Christmas Garland

This is all properly sewn together, only took three years to put all the ingredients together permanently. The binding is old jeans made into bias binding, strips were1 1/2 inches wide. It hangs really well, stiff & bendy.

So many shades of green

but I still didn't have the right one so had to go and buy the one at the top. Done the maths, rods every 12cm, let the sewing commence

Cutting out

and doing the maths, only 2 strips left to do. Next project for the Towers (DD & HP) residence

PS HP = her partner

Windows seat

Patched, quilted, assembled and delivered. It's huge, nearly two metres long. Vast! The recipients had okayed a few of the fabrics but left the design to me. They were very happy.

Its filled with memory foam base, double layer wadding & an old sleeping bag. Its an envelope construction closed with Velcro.

Onto the next commission ....

My how you've grown

Realised I hadn't posted the progress that this piece has had recently. I'm finishing off 1 hexagon above the flowers then I've got another blue to do a lap with.

Another present with its recipient

A scaled up Kindle case, this time for a Kindle Fire. This required sizing up and the Fire is thicker too so the corners are larger to hold it too.
