dark photos - I live in Melbourne and today is back to winter! |
I had visions of a completely solid zig zaggy quilt when I chose this block for my turn as quilter back in May, but I just couldn't get the tops and bottoms of the rows to meet, so I have made a stripey zig zag quilt instead. The stripe of fabric is not a solid, but a spot, which is pretty hard to see here. The top is finished and I just have the back to piece. I have some blocks to put on the back too. I just love a pieced back!
I'm not sure when I will get the back done and then get the quilt stretched and quilted, but it is on my "to-do" list for October. Our grandson arrived with my Bradley from Adelaide yesterday and our house is now rocking to the strains of a four year old! He's one of those start-the-day-at-5:30am kind of kids, (I know they exist, but none of my kids were like that. They were all much more civilised.) which I'm sure will be quite a challenge for us. Tune in next time to see us sleep deprived and loving it! (What's not to love about four year olds?)

especially four year old grandsons. Lovely to have him staying with you. You are so blessed. Loving your quilting ... it looks so good.
Zaki is 4 and has never got up before 7...I don't know how I would have coped if he had gotten up earlier! Your quilt is going to be great.
Enjoy those early mornings. We had Little P for two days last week and although Im an early riser I was challenged to sound enthused about the day BEFORE I'd had my coffee.
Loving those zig zags ....
nice quilt.........enjoy the early rises.....I am up early but I do enjoy time alone first.......
