Today just a short post with some photos. Once more taken with my iphone when walking the dog.

I have finished a big and a small quilt, but some did not manage to take pics. Looking forward to new projects, have nice week, Barbora

Over the last few weeks we had some amazing sunrises, sunsets and cloud constellations. What nature sometimes shows us is really amazing. I rarely take my camera with me, but always have my iphone.  With the camera app  I try to capture the atmosphere and  impressions of the moment.

And 2 self-portraits shot early in the morning.

Have a nice week, Barbora

This December has been a super weather month, with lots of sunshine and warm temperatures though the daytime. I have enjoyed staying outdoors, reading a book on the terrace or working in the garden.

Looking back on 2012 – this year has been a good year for me. I am happy with what I have achieved :

• made quilts I designed
• got more practice and confidence in free motion quilting
• started giving patchwork and quilting classes
• worked on patterns (and learned how to write them)
• got familiar with all the different threads that the market has to offer
• shared my experience with other bloggers

Looking forward to 2013 – I would like to learn and try :

• improvisational quilting
• wonky blocks
• textured blocks – here a fantastic blog with a free project by Sewn Up by TeresaDownUnder
• and reorganize my sewing room, get a new cabinet for my fabrics

Wishing all the best for 2013, happy quilting and see you soon,

Barbora

Today was a perfect autumn day. Even thought it rained a bit in the morning, the rest of the day was just sunshine and nearly clear skies. I could not resist and got out my camera to capture some plants in the garden and the rising moon.

Tomorrow is an other quilting day, got a project in work, this time a quilt from Elizabeth Hartman’s second book Modern Patchwork.
