QuaLiTy TiMe

I also finished the charity quilt called TriDaZZLe...

This one finished at 45 inch x 63 inch & was a quilt as you go.

Left over wide backing from my scrap bin was cut & used for the backing... 

with only a small number of "other" coloured squares needed to make up to size.

My table is now cleared of "jobs" so I can go PLaY with Snuggle Bears again...😃

My WOOFA project for January...

At FNSI

which is hosted by Wendy... at Sugarlane Designs found over HeRe... 
I finished free motion quilting a Xmas project. 

I should have a finished project by mid week.

Days for Girls...

I pulled out small scraps in dark colours & made a few "pockets" for the shields.

In fact, I made 36 in total.

Then I used my overlocker to make ready a few carry bags for this project too.

I actually finished 2 but should have another 4 finished over the weekend.

RSC 2021 has started... & Angela from So Scrappy chose... Pink...

I started by making 1 Friendship Star block... 

repeated it 3 times... 

then framed all 4 blocks together...

I used a "different" squaring ruler to trim HST blocks & on first use I miss cut a few, hence some points are slightly OFF.

DuRinG the HoLiDaYs

I decided on my MaNTRa for 2021 & it's...

Doing It For The Kids...

I hope to make child friendly quilts for either the local hospital OR the various community Charites, Refuges or Organisations that need a helping hand.

I've already started working on one this month... 

& you'll see it below...

* * * * *

In my stitching cubbyhole...

I only grabbed small amounts of time - here & there -  

BuT I did manage to get a few things ✅ on my list...

In December I volunteered to make a charity quilt from a donated kit.
It's called My Garden by Homestead Selection & it definitely has a country feel.

I made a start & block #1 was quickly finished... 

On another day... block #2 was prepared & then blanket stitched...

During an afternoon visit...   the appliqué on block #3 was fused in place...

* * * * *

I was excited last Tuesday when I won a prize in the Guild raffle... yippee...

Four gorgeous "dotty" fabric lengths... so I'm over the moon...😁

* * * * *

I also managed to put together another 3 rows of TriDazzle too...

I'm really happy with how it looks so far...

THeN... last night at FNwF... I worked on Snuggle Bears. 

It's my first 2021 project for "Doing It For The Kids" & it's also my WOOFA project.

I hope you enjoyed stitching along with me if you made it over to my place...

HeRe We Go...

I finished many of my UFO's in 2020 so decided to expand the WOOFA concept 

to include any Project ideas /Patterns / Publications OR  Problems... 

that I've stored, horded, collected... & hoped to make one day.

I like the fact that I will FiNaLLy use a few of these dust collectors collectables. 

Of course any UFO can still be included too.

My first choice is to use a Publication (book) I've owed for a few years... 

Happy Quilts by Antonie Alexander... 

which includes a really CuTe pattern for a child called...

Snuggle Bears.

This will be another charity quilt that I hope a little one will LoVe... 

BuT who knows where it will end up.

WOOFA's a WRaP

I would like to thank AND congratulate all the "woofers" who played in this challenge each month.

Without you, I personally wouldn't have as many "finishes" or improvements to projects without your involvement.

SO a huge THANK YOU is being sent your way...😍

FoR December...

I placed my "Flower Trellis" quilt on the design board 😵... 
& added a few more "flowers"...

After blanket stitching the newly added flowers to RoW 1... 

I cut ALL the sashing strips & then pieced them into lengths... joined the background pieces... then added the sashing & colour strip & assembled RoW 2...

Next I cut out leaves, flowers & bugs ready to be added after I attach the vine.

It's NoT a finish for the month BuT it IS an improvement... so I'm very HaPPy.

This will be our last WOOFA challenge link party for 2020... 

BuT I hope to see you all back again in 2021.

WOOFA will have a little "make-over" too.
