I think I lost my Mojo!

And I am thinking the GYM has it hidden somewhere???? HUMPH!

I signed up for a 1 year membership yesterday so I am hoping it will not be hidden for another year.

I have managed to do some sewing and creative work and here is my weekend WIP a Birthday Doll Quilt for my soon to be little 3 year old - where has the time gone?

This quilt was reproduced after creating the quilt in this post for my niece's 3rd Birthday.

The colours were inspired by the vintage sheet used in the pieced backing, each centre square and binding - originally going to be used as sashing but looked too messy - The white sashing worked well and made for a great work space for some stitching - little dolls with dresses in blue, purple, green & pink to match the quilt colours - orange hair and blue eyes for my little red head.

A tackle on Procrastination

Yeah! I have completed 2 sewing projects which have been awaiting my attention.
Both from amy karol - Bend the Rules Sewing

1st - This sweet little jacket made for Miranda - the fabric was bought in winter/spring last year with this project in mind and now complete. I do not have a printer and hesitant to send yet another printing project to my husband so I did some of my own bending of rules and with a little measuring, guessing and drawing got this a perfect match to these sweet little pants made for winter 07 I have to say that both these patterns were super super easy even for the basic sewer and the pants are what got me started in sewing more. Miranda has quite a few of these pants in her wardrobe.

2nd - A quilt using Amy Butler prints in my favourite colour just for me. I made one for my mum for Christmas in the same fabrics but made sure I had enough to make me one too - Ok I am not quite finished I am 1/2 way through hand stitching the binding in place - I need lessons in whip stitch - no matter how many books I read I just can not work it out - but my stitch is working Ok.
