Rays of Sunshine

Well as the sun has not been very present lately it has been hard to get the outside pictures done that I need for various projects at the moment. So this morning I stitched my own sun!

As you can see it is still being quilted, and that will be finished tonight. I stopped the hand sewing when the episode of Wallander I was watching on the iplayer finished. Thought I had better go back to proper work!

This is version of a quilt I taught the other week at Threadbear. The original is from a new book I have out in the Autumn. Have peek here to see! This picture is in the making up stage, and  I did put the top together, but no picture as no sun :-(

And these Lone Star blocks are an on going idea:

And finally, this is part of the top (now all sewn together) from the Amitie Textiles Circle Game BOM!!! Yeah! All the 16 blocks are together, I just need to find the right border. I had some contenders, but I wasn't 100% convinced, so have left it for the moment, as after all there is no rush!

And finally a ray of sunshine here for the winner of the Adorn it fabrics……..ta da da!

And the Winner is:

    Lots of lovely things to look at!  Particularly love your lone stars Carolyn!
    Have you been influenced by those Amitie girls in the choice of fabrics having done their BOM – they definitely have a particular style!?
