More Cottage Flower Quilts

In between gardening today, I finished cutting and piecing

this next quilt today. It is made from the fabric scraps from of the

first Cottage Flower Quilt.

I used the similar brick path strip pattern but smaller,

than the first quilt.

(3 and a quarter" by 5").

The borders are yet to go on. I will hopefully

get round that tomorrow in between

more gardening and quilting.

The garden takes first priority when I am holiday from

work, so it is easy care the rest of the Summer.

More tomatoes, pumpkins and courgettes were

planted out today.

The runner beans need transplanting tomorrow,

if the weather is good.

We are picking Asparagus most days now.

Delicious!

Cottage Quilt

With all the gardening over the weekend I needed

to get back to quilting and here is a

quillow sized quilt inspired by cottage flowers.

It is made with 'brick' shaped blocks, each

5" by 10" and placed in strips. It is now ready for quilting.

Tree House Transformation

Jennifer's treehouse was built 15 years ago and this week

she was 20!

Underneath it, we have always used it as a wood store

for the fire and log burner.

Stewart and I decided that it was finally time to transform

the area. It was difficult as the tree house has

been part of many happy memories and has been a key

shade spot in the garden.

We wanted to re-cycle the wooden frame to form

a wood store. as you can see we managed it

and now it has planting round it so it looks

like it has been there for a long time!

It took two days over the Easter weekend to do.

We are now happy that we no longer have to duck so

low to get at the wood!

Stewart has put a wicker fencing in front now

and it looks like we could put a Reindeer in it!!!

My Fair Lady

On evening of the 20th of April,

The Coven Quilters were invited as guests,

to see the opening night of "My Fair Lady".

The production was put on by 'KLODS',

Kings Lynn Operatic and Dramatic Society and

Directed by Amanda Arterton.

It was a wonderful production everyone was amazing but

the lead roles, Eliza Dolittle performed by LaurenHoskins

and Professor Higgins by Kevin Shippey were

outstanding. The quilt we had made for fundraising

was in the foyer and the raffle tickets were selling well,

it is going to be drawn in May.

We had such a special evening together,

I felt very special!

Thank you to CLODs and the organisers.
