Maison De Garance Quilt .1.

The Christmas just gone I decided to make my Friends Dale and Sue a quilt for their well deserved present.   Not knowing exactly what the theme for there house is.  I thought, can’t go wrong with making a quilt out of the lovely Maison De Garance fabric by French General.    I love their entire range, so when Gail showed me this wonderful kit from Moda, “How could I resist”.  Well I couldn’t.  So I brought 2..lol.

I really enjoyed making this easy and relaxing quilt, and talk about left overs. I was able to make those two matching pillows and still had enough to make a few more if needed. 

Sue and Dale loved the quilt ( well Sue has taken ownership of it, so I have found a brother quilt to this one that I will have to make for his birthday). 

Last year wasn’t a big flop in the quilt making area as I thought.  

I will be back tomorrow to show you another Christmas/Birthday present I got to finish for 2010.

Take Care everyone and enjoy your stitching 

 

Is this for “Me” oh Thank-you

Well,  I recently celebrated my birthday a few days ago and it was the best so far. 

Reason’s why you say; 

1. First year that I did not have to work.

2. Surprised pressie from my Wonderful Husband,  a gorgeous two toned sparkly ring.  He has really good taste, well ears *lol*

And last but not least

3.   Fantastic gifts from Family and Friends.

A BIG Thank-you to SIL Sarah for the Super Handy Sewing Caddy.  It has been working wonderfully over January along side me.  Love the fabric and the cute little pins.  Also thank-you for my MIL Gail who gave me these fantastic 3 set vintage style box’s, and fabric.  You girls know me oh so well , made me feel so special…. It’s good to be 21 …again..lol

Ok… better get out of the office and  into this kitchen to whip up some dinner. 

Take Care Bloggers and I will return tomorrow with some quilting…I promise.
