I LOVE my new Scrappy Log Cabin Quilt!!!!

Hiya all. Things have been a bit quiet on the blog front, cause we have been busy busy busy with exams around these parts!! Thankfully by Wednesday next week we will be all done!

I have been doing quite a lot of sewing though, and managed to finish my scrappy log cabin quilt, which I started after being inspired by the QAL hosted by Ellison Lane Quilts


Unfortunately I didn't finish my quilt in time to qualify for any of the lovely prizes up for grabs, but I think my gorgeous quilt is prize enough for me!





I am linking up to the following LOVELY blogs:

Have an amazing weekend :)

My first Quilt!!!

Morning all. I just had to do a post about my first quilt, which I completed last month. I am so happy with how it turned out, even though it is far from perfect!! I learnt a lot of lessons along the way, and know that my quilting skills can only improve from here.

The pattern I used is the Avignon Picnic pattern which I uploaded from the Moda Bake Shop (their link is in my side-bar!). I can't say it was the perfect first timer pattern with lots of cutting and piecing involved, but I am a "go big or go home" kind of person. I used a lovely Moda fabric Jelly Roll and just used some basic calico for the cream fabric. Here are some pics of my quilt.





Thanks for stopping by!!
