Skippie! You have finished the quilt! Well done...and I bet it looks a million dollars too.
Whay are acid dyes joy? How do they differ from the procions in both colour and use? I am such a novice I haven't even heard of them!
Well I hardly slept last night so I'm going to try my luck at an early night. Fingers crossed it works cos otherwise I will be as ugly as in both appearance and mood!!!! jumbobon - 2012-05-09 22:16:00 |

Daisy fell asleep on the floor minutes after going home, maybe we worked her too hard LOL.

I am going to help teach a year 5/6 class to knit next week......wish me luck, should be fun:o) I've been out to lunch today so feel like a lady. I am taking a break from the op shop currently and the lady who I work with on a Tuesday misses me so we caught up over lunch:o) wee5 - 2012-05-10 15:33:00 |

Managed to get some baking done today even with the visitors. |
| 33422 | Afternoon all,
Yes i have been away from here for a day or so but have to make a big decision concerning my boy and his education..
Lovely quilts ladies, i love the colours of yours coalie..cute monsters too..
Its been 11 years today since my dear mum passed away, i hope she has better weather up there than what we got down here !!
ok sewing experts could it be possible to make a raggie top from satin or would it fray too much, twas just an idea i had...
Going to get tea ready got a hungry child here, mince veges and spuds.. shell156 - 2012-05-10 16:40:00 |
| 33423 | aw shell that is a big decision to make if we can help just ask ok :)
i dont think satin would make a good raggie imo :)
called into cottage flair today and watched a lady quilt her quilt on a long arm they charge $30 an hour to do it yourself:) one day i will give it a try :)
coalie the quilt looks awesome
ness the monters are looking fugly LOL hahaah
was grocery shopping day for me today and also went to farmers sale and got nighties bras and undies mmm yes very boring
also got some sewing done :) twilight23 - 2012-05-10 18:14:00 |
| 33424 | hugs to you Shell.
you could try a little raggie using satin, put 4 squares together. i dont think it would work but we dont know for sure till someone trys.
LOVE the monsters especially the second pic ones they have a personality :)
thanks for lovely comments about quilt, daughter #2 came this arvo and we blobbed and watched ' call the midwife ' all 3 episodes, tis a great programme. Miranda is just the same as in her programme LOL

3 episodes??? oh noooo you just made me realise I missed call the midwife on sunday! eeeek *kicking self now!* will have to watch it on demand tommorrow morning while I still have 5 minutes peace to myself. I have the series of books on my wishlist on amazon. I hear they are a wonderful read ness315 - 2012-05-10 20:44:00 |

| 33432 | Hellooooooo ladies...(shrill and piercing just to wake you up! ). Sorry but the cheesecake has miraculously vanished. I don't know what happened. What crumbs?
I have been cutting out some wonky stars from my hand dyed stuff. I have stitched one and it is certainly wonky!! Should be a fun little quilt to make. Loads of bright colours are happening...will show much latererer.
Off to work tomorrow so the pussy cats will be alone for a whole day. They are just lovely but it is going to be quite a task to keep them inside for 2 weeks. Tabitha stands at the door and pleads with loud miaows...how do you spell that??...for the door to be opened so she can have a look outside. But I was told that under no circumstances should they be allowed out for two weeks or they will run away. So there!!
Dyed today to use up some colours that had been mixed for a while. They are alright but nothing to wet my pants about...unless I unleash a hearty sneeze!
See you latererer... jumbobon - 2012-05-10 20:59:00 |
| 33433 | oh no Ness, i will remind you on sunday night, tis too good to miss. hubby watches house which is the same time so i record it but i prefer it recorded cause then i can watch when i want :)
wow yum snupper thankyou Shell, yum and i will have the raspberries off your piece Dilli so you can eat it hehe mmm :) coalrange1 - 2012-05-10 21:01:00 |
| 33434 | Evening all,lovely quilt and some cute fugly's, we are a crafty lot and do produce some amazing stuff.
Shell, all the best, really difficult when it concerns our children, (((hugs))) from me.
Pleased that you ate all the cheesecake Jumbo as I have a Lemon Coconut cake in the oven at the mo, is a new recipe so will see how it turns out.
I am still waiting for my fabric to arrive from Hancock's that was shipped on April the 25th, just hope that Customs haven't got hold of it. Got another email flash tonight from Hancock's offering free posting.
No stitching for me tonight, no energy left, I will try to have an early night. skippie1 - 2012-05-10 21:13:00 |
