Finally it's time to start

What an adventure, finally a blog all of my own. It will have lots of news about what I am doing, stuff from my stores - www.sewarmadillo.com.au and http://stores.ebay.com.au/millthorpe ,  but it will also have news about my life, my sewing, my gorgeous grandbaby - Sophia, and anything else I find interesting.

I have been putting this off for ages, and now is finally the time to start writing on my blog. I thought today would be good as I am off to Salt Lake City on Tuesday to attend 2 quilting shows. One is a machine quilting event, not that I do any actual quilting, but I am going with Belinda (who does wonderful quilting), and then we are going to the Spring quilt market so I can get some new stock for my stores.

In the meantime, I have been busy doing some sewing. I am trying to finish off projects before I start new ones, not always succeeding, but I have a few finished.
This one is done with all 1930's prints, and a mix of creamy white backgrounds. It's only small - 36" x 48" and not quilted yet, but it was so much fun to do. I'm not sure what will happen to it yet but I am very happy with it.  As well as that one, I have several others that are almost done. When I know better how to do this, I will post some more pics.
