Free Motion Quilt Blocks.

I am using my lovely variegated threads to do free motion quilting on the plain blocks. 

Aussie Hero Quilt Continued.

Two more blocks to sew and paint. The other blocks will be solid colours that are shown in the show. I watched a few and they are delightful.

Next Aussie Hero Quilt Started.

My Time Saving Trick.

I thought I might like to share with you my time saving trick for an Aussie Hero Quilt. As you know I love the Quilt as you go blocks. So I know that I need 15 backing blocks right from the start. I always have a set for female quilts and a set for male quilts even before the request list goes out and when the choice has been made I have my backing strips and backing already cut out. When the request list has been finished I then make another backing set of squares and strips. I do the same thing with the squares, whenever I have some free time I cut the batting and put them into batches of 15. This way I can concentrate on the fronts only.

Finished Number 8.
