Hand dyed fabric and two flowers

For my Flowergarden I did these two flowers and
have now 53 flowers and some hexies done.
About 100 flowers will be needed, haven't decided yet on how large it will be.


Then I made
 these butterflies and flowers to put on a miniquilt.
I like making little embellishments for quilts


I bought this
Friendship Triangles book by Edyta Sitar the other day,
it is a beautiful book and it has step-by-step technique for
creating half-square triangles among other things.

Have been dyeing
some fabric for my  Dear Jane Quilt



"Happiness is to be found along the way,
 not at the end of the road, for then the journey is over and it is too late.
Today, this hour, this minute is the day, the hour, the minute for each of us
to sense the fact that life is good, with all of its trials and troubles,
and perhaps more interesting because of them."

Take care and enjoy what ever you are doing.

Tuesday

Two new books

I bought the Material Obsession 2 at a quilt festival in Lux last month and liked it a lot, I just had to have the other one as well. I ordered it through Amazon in UK and in two days I had it in my hands, just lovely.
So many beautiful pictures,  one's mind -  inspiration in full.



And now I have all this beautiful fabric from Masako Wakayama,
that I bought at the quilt festival in Lux.
It is very soft and I'm sure it is a good quality.
Can't wait to start something nice.

Hope you all have a nice week and happy quilting.
