Have started two new quilts with fabrics I got at the recent quilt show in Sydney and have added a few of my own.  Instead of making one very large quilt, I decided to divide the fabrics in half and create two quilts - much easier to handle and quilt.




Both these quilts have some linen blend fabrics as well as décor weight fabrics.
For the backing I have chosen to go with a voile fabric for its softness.
More photos to come soon bye for now...

A few more projects underway, about to start and finished....

my QAYG project using fusible batting was really easy to use, loved not having to baste (my least favourite part of the process).  Quilting individual blocks and then joining them made it so much easier in the machine.





I added to backing after quilting and joining the blocks using straight line quilting to match  the front and the backing material is a lovely voile fabric.
 
bye for now....
