recycled

Been to Gordon Harris, raided the shed, raided the stash - can see a direction taking place. Think I'm under way. This theme is creating interesting colours for me. Not ones I usually use. Happy creating everyone.

Family show and tell

I don't know if I can take this any more!! THESE ARE AMAZING! I keep being blown away with ever ones wonderful pieces of art they keep coming up with.
Our next word has been chosen by Maree and it is....Recycled... Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with. Here are the photos from our Family challenge.
P.S. Maree Schroder I need to explain mine to you. You missed a bit of news while you have been gone :)

Sunday get together

Don't forget that this Sunday the 19Th of June is our next get together. Be there at 2pm with your finished Family quilt. Maree Schroder is picking the next word but she wont be there so Sheena has the next word all taped up so we can all open it together. See you all then.

Yes Get on with it!!

Ha I'm the same as Ashleigh, although I have stuck with my initial idea, i just need to get sewing!I have done some initial prep of pieces which are my main focus points but am really worried they will be too big for a 12x12 to look as I wanted them to!Eek...it might look even simpler than I had initially thought!Ha definitely a challenge!!
The international challenge group have now posted their next colourplay 12x12 using the colour Spice - some interesting quilts & some even more interesting explanations of how they designed their quilts!!! http://twelveby12.blogspot.com/ Squares seem to always get me so I really like Kirsten & Gerrie's quilts with their lovely bright colours, & Helen's.Also the landscape done by Francoise & the simplicity of Diane's Burst of Flavour....well & .....I could probably just about list them all! Some interesting ideas & techniques!

time to get onto it

After a few two many thoughts of what I will do for family and none of them seeming to work, I have now decided that I have to bite the bullet and just start on something. I think I have a good idea so will make it my long weekend project.
