Secret Sewing

Well ok not really secret, but well I liked the quiltalong that Dana from  Old Red Barn Co was doing, so I decided I’d follow along at my own pace and in my own time(not much of that lately)..anyways I had to go with whatever fabric I had so I was thinking hmmm…it’s dry season what colours do I see,I see brown and green and pink and red-so I pulled some fabrics from the cupboard and said right just cut it….

P1030398   I did not hesitate the cutting as I know I would of started going oh but that don’t go with this blah blah you know how it goes eh?        

P1030399Now when I went too start sewing this cat CYA had other ideas,she was not going to move and if looks could kill that sure is a killer look eh?

P1030402 Gosh it almost looks like ermm dare I say technicolour scrap heap.

P1030400 The photos don’t do it any justice

It truly looks ok..the pic above showing the cut fabric is a good pic of the colours..the individual blocks ended up measuring 11”when sewn up and my quilt measures 6 blocks by 8 blocks and when completed it may just live on the horrid lounge (brand new and I never knew I would have a reaction too microfiber) –always have to have a cover on  it….

Cheers Vickie
