When Mums are too buisy or too tired!

This is my son Nicholas, he was wanting to make a gear lever cover for his car and asked me to help him a 9:00pm when I was relaxing in front of the TV. I said I would help him the next day and this was not quite what he wanted.  So I said to him  feel fee to make it yourself and I pointed to my sewing room.  He went in found a suitable piece of fabric and proceeded to make what he wanted! It  looks great..........what do you think? All himself I might add!
Also Made by Nick

 Buying a mask was not an option for him - had to make it himself.  This was for one of the parties he went to! Plaster of paris on his face for 3 hours! I did the embroideries he needed. I just love his enthusiasm he is always game to try anything, nothing is too hard.

Summer, Autumn and Winter Wall Hangings




This is a series of quilts I have designed for the embroidery classes I give in the Bernina shop in Cannington.  My latest one is the Summer one. One more to go!

The block can be called World's Fair or Wagon Tracks.

GO! for it QUILT


I bought the accuquilt fabric cutter at the Craft Show and  with the 4 1/2" square,      2 1/2" half triangle and the 2 1/2" square  I have pieced together the                           "GO! for it QUILT" 
The quilting was done with my Bernina 830 embroidery machine.
