Exciting times…

Its the start of new week, almost a new month, its the month I get to annoy my kids saying ‘may the forth be with you’ in a few days…

Unlike most Monday’s, today I was buzzing, its the day i get to sew my quilt together, its my first design I’ve created using the new EQ8 software, last week I worked out all the minor details, and yesterday i cut all the pieces in preparation…

After creating the first of 9 blocks that make up the quilt, i found it a little busy, so i decided to make a few more changes…

Does anyone else get exciting about seam nesting?  I just love it when it all comes together

These fabrics are from Craft Cotton, its a new collection called ‘by the pond’ and I’m using this beautiful variegated thread from Gutermann

I love to fussy cut too, so i was keen to show off these lovely swans in these fabrics

Thanks for reading, I’m off to sew a little more, before the kids get home from school, I will return soon with my progress 🙂
