T-shirt Quilts


Ladies here is a new way to let your significant other profit from your craftiness... Make a quilt out of his old t-shirts! This quilt belongs to Laurel, I found it whist browsing around. Most quilts I have seen are large blocks like this one and I was thinking that surely something interesting could be done if you cropped into the printed images more... I shall get my Quilting Aunt onto the case..

Topsey - Turvey Dolls


So excited to finally find the pattern for these dolls at my local Op Shop. Now I just need to find a knitter with really good tension (it's something I lack..so far anyway!) to knit me one. Or maybe a whole knitted Christmas Nativity! Jean Greenhowe's website can be found here along with some cute free patterns too.

For Sale today on Ebay


This amazing quilt top.
