Quilting!

I know I am a very bad person and very tardy blogger - unfortunately life gets in the way and there are always so many things which need doing first!  I know this is just making excuses.  Anyway here I am.  I have refound my sewing machine - I have made lots of summer frocks which I love and have tried quilting.

I am lucky to own a Fiskars Fuse die cutting machine and this takes the Sizzix quilting dies easily.  The Fuse is my go to machine - I had another make of large die cutter which was also excellent but just took up too much room.  The brilliant Fuse folds up when not in use.  I love cutting all the patchwork pieces and sewing them all together again. I am not keen on the quilting bit but this is because I am not very good at it - need to practice more. I get lots of inspiration from Missouri Star.


Just a start - can't wait to choose my next project time permitting.  These are definitely not perfect but they are finished and I am pleased with the them for starters.
