...a window to summer on the Moda Bakeshop

I had hoped to post this two days ago but some technical difficulties that I have been trying to fix for the last two days prevented me. Frustratingly N fixed it tonight in two minutes. But at least it is fixed.

So this quilt was posted on the Moda Bakeshop - I made it during a really cold week in winter and hand quilted it in another. Taking some inspiration from the fabric line used, Summersville, I called it a window to summer.

This weekend N and I took a trip to the Mt Hotham - a ski resort in the north of the state. And I got to take some extra pictures of the quilt in the snow, and I think it provides a great juxtaposition for the quilt.

The trip was great too - I have some more pictures I will share in the next few days.

The post can be found here on the Moda Baksehop.

...Kaleidoscope Christmas - in July

Remember when I made this cushion? I put a few pictures of it up on my flickr page as well, like I usually do, and I got so many comments, including one suggesting I submit it to the Moda Bakeshop and I thought, "why not?".

To me I could see it in nothing but Christmas fabric, cause that is what I was thinking of when I designed and made it but I'm sure others can come up with other versions that will point out how versatile any design can be. 

I also up-sized it from the original and added a border and some cornerstone, so it will be the Christmas quilt on our spare bed over the season. I have another design in the works for our bed. 

The recipe is already up on the Moda Bakeshop - it was a nice surprise when I woke up this morning. 

I was really hoping to take some pictures of this one in the snow - but our holiday there isn't sorted yet so it's a Christmas Quilt at the beach. Pretty Australian really. 

...Salty Air at the Bakeshop

I can't stop making Bakeshop quilts! 

I have this one up over there today. It comes together surpringly quickly considering the number of pieces that it looks like it has. 

And because we are talking about it being constructed from traignale rather than diamonds there are no y seams!.

Please pop on over and have a look!

I am posting over at the Moda Bakeshop today....and I am lots nervous. Please take a peek if you have a moment.
