Show and tell...

It's been a while.....we are so very ready for Spring this corner of the world! I thought I'd do some show and tell in this post.......

I made this ABC quilt for my daughter Amy when she was 1 yr old (she's 7 now) and then it ended up being a wall hanging! How did that happen?? Then there is her decorative pillow with her name appliqued on it - this is my favorite as I did it without a pattern! How did that happen as well?? (Sorry, I know this isn't showing the right way...I can't figure out how to rotate it in this application! arrgh.)

I managed to whip this wall hanging quilt up out from an issue of Australian Country Thread magazine. Wonders will never cease...

I made this birthday quilt wall hanging for Amy when she was 4. Since then, she reminds me to hang it on the wall before her birthday arrives, so she can proudly say "mommy made that for me!"

There are wonderful projects and tons of beautiful pictures in this magazine. My sister who lives in Victoria, Australia, decided I should keep busy while waiting for the baby to arrive, so she started me on this great magazine. Boy, am I a big fan of it! (I wish I could subscribe to it here in the US economically but then again, there is my sister!) Thank you, Mod!

Stay safe, everyone!
