A quick note

I thought maybe a gentle reminder on here would help get my surname spelt correctly? Butler with one "t". Now I know how it feels as a kid when the teacher spells your name incorrectly :-).
Thanks.

Lettuce, OOPS!! Letters

Well the head is a jumble of letters, and time is passing rapidly. Got a busy weekend focusing on getting this one started and ...... finished. I hope! Something usually crops up with the family and my letters, plans slip off the page.
A lot of ideas have been planned and scraped, but really happy with my current idea. Not as adventurous this time but sometimes simplicity works alot better.
Hope you are all enjoying the process and look forward to catching up in a few weeks and sharing our quilts again.
Quite excited about presenting my word, which has changed several times in the last few weeks.

Lunch on Sunday

Hi girls, just thought I'd give you a quick update about where and when we are meeting on Sunday the 11th of Sept. It is at the Woodside Est Cafe on Woodside road at 12.30. If you head onto Morrinsville Road and just after Chanel park on the right turn down Matangi road and Woodside road is on the left hand side, it's a little drive down Matangi road so just keep an eye out. See you then!!!!

Inspiration!

The international 12x12 group have just posted their last colourplay challenge - Orange! Some really nice quilts once again! http://www.twelveby12.org/ I have bought their book but, with all these challenges & daily life!, haven't had a lot of time to read it...but have really enjoyed the bits I have read. I have been procrastinating on how to do my background for "Song" but looking at these Orange quilts has given me a bit of inspiration to go with a few ideas I have already had!! I've stuck with my original idea but am finding it hard to decide on the best way to put it all together without over-doing anything....Once again challenging with time fast running out! Looking forward to seeing all the Splash Quilts tomorrow!! See you there.

Progress

Splash of colour finished and delivered. Grandson's cot quilt finished and delivered. Finally time for "song". Still in my head and will probably change in the process of getting it onto fabric. Here we go!!

Recycled Outcome

Here are the photos from our last Sunday reveal catch up. They once again (for the 5th time) they look amazing. Some are a tad fuzzy, sorry for the poor photography.
