Puzzles and board games had a major moment in 2020, and these kinds of simple, nostalgic activities are showing no signs of slowing down. What’s more is that gaming has moved into the spotlight when it comes to decor, too.
In this video you’ll learn about the three main quilting styles. See how they are different and how they can be applied to certain areas of your next quilt.

Those of you who have been following our YouTube channel for a while will have noticed a number of changes in what we have in the background. It's all about being able to keep things neat and tidy while showcasing what we are working on in the video at the time. We found that having a piece of batting on the wall worked quite well, but it wasn't terribly attractive so we came up with the idea of putting the batting onto a canvas board. Now we tried a few techniques and kept ending up with pokey out bits on
While enjoying a stitching day at Millrose in Ballan on Sunday, l took my hexi flowers for a walk around the shop. l found 2 that l liked, so l put it to the other girls stitching with me to help. The decision was unanimous!! So l am happy to report that l have finally found the fabric l want to use as my pathway! l set to on Tuesday, covering a handful to test them out. Here is the result! l couldn't be more happy. Love them, and love what they bring to the flowers. l originally bought 2 metres, then yesterday bought 2 more, just in case!! Can a girl ever have enough of a great fabric?? LOL My tally so far is 39 flowers completed, and 14 centres made. Then l have tons more prepped and ready to pick up and go. l take my tin of fabric and papers with me everywhere, and when ever l have a few minutes of down time, l take it out and stitch a few. And now l also have to confess that l have a new hexi addiction! When l was in France a few years ago, l fell in love with these blue Liberty fabrics. l chose 3 solids to go with them and put them in a case to make a French memory quilt. When l came home l went through my meagre Liberty stash and pulled out some extras. This is what l stitched at our sewing day in Ballan. Couldn't be happier with how it is looking, and makes a nice change from working with the reds all the time. Time will tell what l choose for the pathway here, but l do have something in mind!! Stay tuned!! Thanks for visiting. Linda.
The first English Garden Round Robin was the brainchild of Maureen Greeson, an accomplished embroiderer with thread and silk ribbon. This was such a popular round robin that a second one was formed (pictures later this spring). The participants in this round robin were Maureen G., Meg W, Marya, Kathy Shaw, Ingrid G. and Arlene from Australia.
