<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">3 years later she posts!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I finally have a PC again...yay!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> I wonder if I can try to blog again... Instagram and Facebook are so quick and easy to use to get to all of my followers, does anyone still have the time to read blogs?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I know I steered away from blogging as I felt overwhelmed by having to find something to talk about, whereas I can post a photo online and It only needs a quick sentence or nothing at all and its done.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Do we put too much pressure on ourselves?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">This quilt is one I thought I would have a practice on before I
did a customer’s quilt,</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"> I’m happy with the result, as it took a fairly ugly

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I free motion quilted it with swirls, can’t go wrong with
swirls right? I have also recently changed my thread to Aurafil 50wt and it is beautiful
to work with. I have also pieced the quilt using the Aurafil 50wt and believe
me the seams just disappear. If you haven’t used it yet, give it a go!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have also finished this Quilt. It may be small but it took

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you are on Instagram then you will already be familiar
with the #scrappytripalong that has gone totally viral in the last few days! I
finally reneged and joined in the fun. I used a Boho Jelly Roll by Urban Chiks. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Jelly roll only makes 12 Blocks which makes it a perfect Baby Quilt.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It went together in a matter of hours. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I timed the blocks and they took 25 minutes each to make. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sorry I have been missing in action for the last few weeks, I have been working on a lot of different things and achieving nothing.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Do you ever have weeks like that?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have delivered two more Quilts to the local quilt store for sale so that has taken up a bit of time and have been working on a third for them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here are the three quilts.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> As you can see I have a ‘little’ stash of Tula but now that I have a nice selection I think I might use all three ranges in the one Quilt.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As most of you would know I dislike binding, well that’s not quite the case, Binding doesn’t like me...Well what I mean is that I can only do it in very short bursts because my hands ache sooooo much they start to lock up...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I hear you say sew your binding down with the machine, I’ve tried it, hated the finish and went back to hand sewing...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Anyway I have bought these Wonder Clips by Clover, And they arrived on Thursday and eagerly I put them on the current binding project I had. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">All I can say is I Love them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I attached them and got through ½ a Quilt in no time at all and ache free! Yay!!!</span><br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VArDar5X0k8/T91I6ZAI1xI/AAAAAAAABoQ/cWIjkAtq0uA/s1600/IMG_1381.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" pca="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VArDar5X0k8/T91I6ZAI1xI/AAAAAAAABoQ/cWIjkAtq0uA/s320/IMG_1381.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So if you are wondering if they are any good give them a go, I know they are expense but they are worth it if you have the problems I did...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Fast forward to this morning... I have attached 2 bindings</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> on two Quilts you will have seen before. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Firstly here is a Quilt a made years ago but have never attached the binding, I had it cut and just never got to it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well that’s now attached ready for the hand sewing. </span><br />

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The second quilt is my Swoon.</span><br />

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> I’m still plodding along with hand quilting the blocks but I’m happy to have the binding on, hopefully it will spur me along to finish... I had forgotten how much I love this Quilt!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have made a baby quilt out of reunion for a work colleague who knows she’s having a boy and has thankfully told everyone so there was to be no flowers or frills on this one.</span><br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pZvrRIKjx_U/T8GcekDKQYI/AAAAAAAABkY/vVj6ZD9HHJU/s1600/IMG_1287.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" qba="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pZvrRIKjx_U/T8GcekDKQYI/AAAAAAAABkY/vVj6ZD9HHJU/s320/IMG_1287.JPG" width="213" /></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I removed the flower patterns from the charm pack and used a pattern from Moda bake shop called <a href="http://www.modabakeshop.com/2012/02/line-dance-baby-quilt.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Line Dance</span></a>. It went together in a matter of hours and was very easy, one that I will make again!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8_JLlnFjlRc/T8GcD9_H9nI/AAAAAAAABi4/Qo6kFVJFSW8/s1600/IMG_1292.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" qba="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8_JLlnFjlRc/T8GcD9_H9nI/AAAAAAAABi4/Qo6kFVJFSW8/s320/IMG_1292.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It’s currently on the Gammill and I’m free motioning it with a large stipple and a Swirly thing (this is the technical term) in the small inner border still deciding on the strips down the centre of the quilt.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Having been long-arming solidly for the last few weeks I’ve been getting rather twitchy and I needed to get behind my Janome!</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DXjFGRFOBA4/T8GcV6g1VqI/AAAAAAAABj0/Ja_i5d0IqEg/s1600/IMG_1290.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" qba="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DXjFGRFOBA4/T8GcV6g1VqI/AAAAAAAABj0/Ja_i5d0IqEg/s320/IMG_1290.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I dug into my stash and found this Tweet Tweet Jelly Roll I have had a couple of years now and decided to match that with Camille’s <a href="http://thimbleblossoms.bigcartel.com/product/jellybean-pattern-146-pdf-pattern" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Jellybean Quilt</span></a> Pattern.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana;">I also removed a few of the brown strip </span><span style="font-family: Verdana;">and</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana;"> replaced them with blue strips cut from some yardage...</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Love the way it is going together... Here it only has I/2 the blocks together, but I put on the design wall so you could get a feeling for the finished product.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana;">I have also dug out this, my Hoop Bag and decided I really should attempt the Hand Quilting on this again as I really want to finish this project.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VtU2N-4mhgw/T8GcOIITOfI/AAAAAAAABjY/H9L4xhYQJqI/s1600/IMG_1302.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" qba="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VtU2N-4mhgw/T8GcOIITOfI/AAAAAAAABjY/H9L4xhYQJqI/s320/IMG_1302.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana;"> After pulling out my last attempt I have started again.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana;"> I am now armed with Tiger Tape so that should (hopefully) make it all better...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Binding is attached, but not sewn down. I know that it isn’t technically finished but my super-woman cape is in the drycleaners and I won’t get it back until next week... so this will have to do.</span></div>
