Twitt Twoo

This is what I am going to be doing early next week- making curtains for the nursery at son and daughter in laws house. Isn't it just charming fabric with all those lovely folk art  birds. 





After my trip to Houston I have been inspired to make a Texas Star quilt and have started making these using some metal templates I bought back from the show.  Loving digging through the repro fabric stash picking fabrics for these and sitting quietly at night with the TV on doing a little  hand piecing.



As 2012 approaches I am sure we can all look back with highs and lows but hope you all have lots of HIGHS in 2012.

Happy New Year to  you all  and thanks for following my personal highs and lows.


Happy Stitching

Sue

    Dear Sue,
    I'm constantly amazed at how clever you are! Never in a million years could I sew a Texas star let alone make a quilt, if only!
    Sending love & best wishes for 2012.

    Love the nursery fabric!
    Your stars are looking good. I have an antique Texas Star quilt I should dig out. Very small stars and lots of them. Are your templates from ARDCO? I like that brand of metal template.
    Wishing you all THE BEST in 2012!!

    Sue, congratulations on the news of the grandchild. Love the fun fabric for the nursery. And that star quilt is going to be fabulous. We have a star quilt that my husband's grandmother made. It covers our bed.
    All the best ~ sarah
