Tutorial Correction

My sincere apologies. If you have downloaded the tutorial in my previous post please go back and re download. I was just making another quilt with the same layout and discovered that one of the strip measurements was incorrect. The same link will still work. 

Today has been a beautiful Autumn day, hardly a cloud in the sky. I have put together a Bridie's Blossoms keepsake  package to be sent off to the parents of an angel baby.







I am currently working on my last unit for my Diploma of Family History. I am researching my last essay and must knuckle down and get it down over the next week as it is due the first week in May.

New Window Box Vintage Flowers Illusion quilt pattern and tutorial uploaded

My new lap quilt that I have titled Window Box Vintage Flowers Illusion has been in the making process for a week or so now. Yesterday I finished piecing it and I have also written a tutorial for it. I have stitched the 52 inch square lap quilt using the Vintage Flowers set from Hatched in Africa and have made the embroidered centres 8 1/2 inches square so that the same dimensions can be used with many sets of embroidered designs. I thought the designs looked like vases of flowers and the setting makes them look like they are sitting in window boxes, hence the title for the quilt.

I hope that everyone is having a restful Easter break.

I had another check up with my oncologist a week ago and thankfully all is well and the next one is not scheduled for another four months.

Our Strahan Mini Break

Last weekend we traveled to Strahan on the West Coast of our fabulous little island. On Saturday we rode the magnificent West Coast Wilderness Railway and were well and truly pampered. 

                       



 On Sunday we traveled the Gordon River on board the Harbour Master catamaran to view the beautiful Macquarie Harbour and the temperate rainforest in the World Heritage area.



Friday afternoon we took a trip out to magnificent Ocean Beach. What a view and it is so hard to believe that there is no land fall until you reach South America. 



Back to sewing and more blocks in the Hatched in Africa's Enchanted Garden BOM.
