Finally, after two years of procrastination this ufo is now under way. Remember back when I first said I wanted to do this.

Well today I started to take the pieces from the design board and started to work on it. So far this is what I have done. All the blue at the bottom is just the backing I'm sewing it on to. The top, though, is to be sky so I'll sew "cloud" shapes on the lighter patches.

I'm sooo excited again

I forgot to say that I have discovered the product called "visoflex" that you iron on to the back of the fabric, cut shapes you want, peel off the paper and iron on to your project . . . it's brilliant and has helped me move forward with this. Once the whole thing is done I will cover it in a layer of tulle and quilt it - this will help soften some of the lines and hold the visoflex backed pieces.

tis great stuff the visoflex ive used it a few times, makes it so much easier. oooh your mountains are looking amazing wow. I sure do like the idea of the tulle over it ooh I will keep that idea tucked away ( lol not tucked too far tho or I will forget hahaha )

Love your work Judy...the mountains are perfect! Now I can't wait to see it finished.
Coalie...I am going to the craft show in Palmerston North! Skippie is going to Carterton to stay with her friends this weekend...and guess what? I got an invitation to go with her and I can't wait! Her friend is lovely. Of course a quilter too...and she teaches classes as well. How lucky are we?
How's the quilting going wee? Are those adorable kittens helping you?

Shell did you put clean water in the fish bowl before you replaced the fish?? and clean all the stones and toys/plastic thingies. and the plants as what ever killed the first fish could still have been in the water.
We always put an antibotic capsule in the water (just the powder from one not the capsule itself - that sterilsed the water for the fish)

I am here awaiting the arrival of my frog that failed to turn into a prince! He has been in Wellington for a day long meeting while I was having fun at work. Poor muttley...I do say awful things about him...but then I ain't no princess neiver! Hope to do some stitching laterer on...maybe...
BTW coalie...I always behave myself, so I don't understand your warning about staying away in Carterton. Please explain...

Nice quilt coalie...you snucked it in while I was typing. Not a quick typist, me. Not pist either!

Nice quilt coallie, lucky Munchkin. Not so coallie, you end up stitching your Fingers to the quilt, not nice. But the coffee, well yes, always like a cuppa.
Jumbo whAt time is your luvly frog due home, bugger that was a long day for him, hope you have cooked something nice for his tea.
MIL is viewing Andre Rieu again and again and again, we saved all his shows for her and now we have seen them all again in the last 4 weeks. Hmmmm.
Coffee, come over here, kettle is hot.

skippie1 - 2013-02-11 19:59:00
40344

Andre Rieu...love the music and the glamour, being so used to it of course, but he seeks out the camera and thinks he is just it. Well...of course I don't know what he thinks so there goes that argument...but he does nothing for me at all at all.
Just waiting now for muttley...any minute!
