Granny Andrea


I like sewing. I took a quilting class this fall. Here is my almost finished produce. It's machine pieced, and machine quilted, and all I have to do is put the binding on. Er...that could be awhile. I hate hand sewing and it's the one thing I need to do.

The colours are off in these pics and i can't figure out how to take better ones, aside from bringing my quilt outside in -10c weather. So here it is. I loved the colours at first, and now that I've spent way too much time with this quilt, I am not a fan. It will reside in my basement family room.

  2. Thanks Kim. Long story about how I came about those colours, and it's not because I was absolutely thrilled with them at first. I did like them, however they kind of came from a mistake in the amount of fabric I purchased, and then I had to compensate other fabrics for it. Quilter store fabric is very expensive (like 18.00 a metre!) and so knowing what I spent on it, I'm not in love with it.

    I have some gorgeous ones I bought from ebay which I can't wait to try out. Brights!
