OPAM report and AYOS

I have been working on my "Winter Blooms", and it's still on the frame waiting to be finished quilted. I am almost done, only a few hours of quilting left. 




I signed up for AYOS (Anothe year of Schnibbles), hosted by Sinta and Sherri. The quilt for January was the "Full House". I decided to make the pillow with these cute little houses, but since I didn't read the pattern well enough I ended up with making 12 big houses, the ones in the original "Full House" pattern.... so... I finally got to cut and start piecing the small ones that is meant to be used for the pillow this weekend, and finished most of them. We where celebrating Hubby's birthday on Sunday, so I had to make some cakes and stuff instead of sewing ;o) 
Today a stomach bug came and interrupted my sewing plans, so I have only the top finished, not a finished quilt :-(



I've used the fabrics in the Moda line "Ruby". Pretty happy colors :o)
So... No finishes for me this month, but I guess I will have a couple for next month then :o)

I decided to join the new BOM Civil War Journals. I got the first parcel from Fat Quarter Shop a couple of days ago, and looking forward to get time to start cutting and sewing. This quilt is really beautiful, and even if the Japanese fabrics are my favorite, I really love the reproduction fabrics. 
I got this blog button from Fat Quarter Shop, and if you are joining the BOM too, please use it on your blog if you like :o)



I'll be stuck in my favorite chair with some hand sewing in front of the TV tonight. Not feeling good at all, but there will be another day tomorrow :o)

Happy sewing,
Laila

    Fikk nesten hjertebank når jeg så den flotte lille quilten din av Ruby. Nå ble jeg virkelig inspirert til å finne fram Ruby igjen :o)

  8. The little Ruby houses are gorgeous but not nearly as wonderful as your Winter Blooms quilt. It's stunning!

    Here's hoping you feel better soon!
