A wee bit late… but better late than never I say! We have been so flat chat since Christmas, we have a pattern coming out in Homespun magazine in April – which we have designed some patterns to accompany it, they just needed to be finished and patterns written… one is now off to our lovely quilter to do her magic, and the other is nearly finished too.
We also have just finished a very cute softie pattern which we absolutely love and hope you do to!! It will be sold in physical pattern form at Patchwork with Gail B’s shop and is to be launched at the Sydney show at Gail’s stand. This is the first pattern we have done in physical form and we hope you like it! It will also be in a downloadable version from our website soon. (Sneak peeks to come)
My craft groups have just started back too and I am teaching a beginners sampler quilt and kaleidoscope quilt at our Friday night quilt group and there are lots of things happening at the Wednesday morning group too!
So in-between all of this my granddaughters have been in need of some special nanny made things. So for Christmas I was hidden away behind my machine making frilly skirts, party dresses, Barbie & Ken wedding clothes and bunting! You will notice they are in purple or pink, Scarlett loves purple and Lacey loves Pink. There were more skirts made but I was not quick enough to photograph them all!!
Frilly skirts with interchangeable underskirt, each got a white broderie anglaise and tulle underskirt, plus a detachable tulle rose.
Pink and purple party dresses, which had matching doll party dresses too!
Barbies had a beautiful dress, veil and bouquet. Ken had to match with a silver dress suit, white shirt with a bow tie and vest.
Aunty Shez even french braided the Barbies hair for their wedding day!
Miss Amelia also got bunting, but it’s not hung yet.
Ok, now off to do some more pattern writing.
Happy Quilting
