Puppies..... :-)

My daughter Joëlle is the owner of two lovely border collies and the female MIA will have puppies! Yesterday in the ultrasound examination the Vet. counted at least 6 puppies. They are due on february 23. The stud is the beautiful border collie Jerry Lee (owner: Yvonne Zylla, Leverkusen, Germany).

This month I was a little bit late to sew part 5 due to
some familiar problems...but here it is:-)

Love entwined

I labeled all my LE posts, so you can find them on the right sight under "love entwined, tutorials & freebies. Easier to find all the post concerning Esther's beautiful BOM. Have a nice week! Fernande

Love entwined Part 4

I just finished part 4 of LE. That is the third attempt....
the first had other colours, more blue...but it was not mine...
the second one I tried broderie perse....it looked terrible...
and finally the third (all with batiks) was fine. I don't know what
others think about the colours but for me they are just right....

 

 

 

heartland applique quilt

In a 10 day vacation in Spain I began to applique a 12 block quilt
designed by Pearl Pereira from P3designs I bought this pattern together with a good friend, Rita (she passed away 6 years ago by leucemia).
We wanted to sew this quilt together, but.......
Now it is time to do it...in memory of Rita.

I have finished 4 blocks and the 5th is in progress.

Also part 4 of Esther's Love entwined is online. The next few days I will sew the LE, when I have done part 4 of LE I will continue on the Heartland applique quilt.

 

the marks of the blue wash-away pen are still visible....they will disappear
later in the water
