#stayhome makes

I used this pattern https://www.theshabbycreekcottage.com/make-it-oversized-pouf-inspired-by-west.html , but obviously in a smaller size 

Binding bonding

Sewing the binding on a quilt 

when this little guy decided to squeeze in for a snuggle.

(I now have 3 Abyssinian cats, 

my favourite breed.)

#stayhomeandsew

My son wanted to do some more appliqué.

He designed his own logo on illustrator,

Picked his fabrics from my stash,

found a suitable old t-shirt 

and used my machine...

Afterwards he took a photo 

and seemed very pleased with his new skill.

Rainbows #stayhome

My eldest son (15) and I

made a rainbow for the window.

He wants to learn to appliqué 

so I thought we could start with this rainbow

as a way to get used to my machine and the technique.

Now he has plans for more!

The cat on the quilt

This shows the quilt better, but not the cat. 

He has taken to sleeping on our bed a lot 

since we have all been home so much. 

I am yearning to make another triangle quilt, 

but I have so many other quilts to finish!

Today on the machine

Freehand leaves (my new favourite freehand pattern) 

on a friend’s quilt. 

My friend is making this quilt for her sofa.

 She has fallen out of love with it, 

but I am hoping that she will like it again when it is quilted! 

Quilting really makes a quilt IMHO 

The quilty cat knows a lot about that

That staying in stuff.

Here he is pictured on (mostly the back) of one of my favourite quilts.

It gets rotated on our bed with another favourite

#StayHome & Quilt

Sheep baby quilt.

I used a double layer of wadding/batting

to make it more snuggly.

Quilted with freehand loops and hearts

because I love babies....

Just the binding to do now...

... I appear to have plenty of time in my hands for that 😩
