I Love to design, whether it's cross-stitch, patchwork quilt or a room, shed or my house . I love to make my own quilts
Wow over a year since I've written anything here.
10 lashes with a wet noodle. GET BACK TO WORK DODIE.
Well I have been working on a lot of designs. This quilt is tha latest.
Chef-tiger created a series of brightly coloured ornament designs in cross-stitch which we named Kaliedoscope #1,#2, #3 and #4..... to show them in other colours I did each in one graded colour .
I fell in love with #2 in blue and decided to convert it to a quilt. This led us to a long time wish to add a line of patchwork quilt designs to our inventory.
Watch for "Blue Kaliedoscope" under patchwork quilts it will be presented September at The Online Needlework Show very soon now.
Yours in bright patches,
Dodiemom.
WOW!!!!!
Has it really been that long since I last wrote anything here.
So much to do. So many things to catch up on.
New charts designed, waiting to be stitched and published.
Gardening to keep up with
not doing to well with that either. The weather hates to co-operate with my plans. Well, that's my excuse, and I'm sticking with it.
Well I have half a dozen new designs of mine to stitch for imminent publishing, Chef-tiger has at least as many she's stitching. I don't know what Lil' Turtle is working on but I'm sure it will be just as cute as her other designs.
KEEP WATCHING, WE'LL BE BACK WITH A NEW BATCH OF DESIGNS SOON.

Sam's quilt is finally finished.
Since they won't let me post two pics in one blog, I've posted twice to get both pics in.
The first is Sam's quilt, with all the upheaval of renovations it has taken 6 months, but it is finished now. I made two pillow slips to go with it instead of a pillow sham, figured a 15 year old boy would get more use out of them, besides it shows off the main fabrics.
The second pic is the two pillow slips with a little of the quilt to show how the fabric was used.
Now to get back to AQP quilts and PGD charts.
Dodiemom.
Well it's finally getting there.
Sam's quilt, "Sam's racing stars" is almost finished. Just have to add the label and binding, then make a pillow to match.
Many thanks to those who helped me to find and get the cars fabrics.
We did well in keeping Pine Glen at the top of the list for January. Lets keep up the good work.
