The month that was!

 Well that month sure got away from me! 

For all you non locals, my country is currently 

in a time of great despair!  Our numbers are 

climbing, we have 3 provinces in major drought,

all are suffering from employment issues and  two 

currently on fire!  

Quilting will definitely take out minds off all 

this and help us push forward!

So today I am quilting my great big ole string star!



I am echo quilting inside each star.

We also celebrated a family 
wedding. Small but very joyful. 
The happy couple received a 
total of three quilts and the bride wore 
her mother's dress for a beautiful 
ceremony. ( Yes, my dress)
Very moving and beautiful. 
This is the wedding quilt
I gifted them. 


A pineapple quilt made with batiks. 
Very fun to make with a snazzy new ruler. 

A good family friend made this beauty.
It was inspired by a big stack of florals


What a great quilt to add to the wedding bounty!

This ultimate scrappy quilt was made by 
the bride's SIL.  
Incredible piecing and color sense here!






We did travel thru Western Canada, 
avoiding the fires and meeting up with old friends.
Made a few new ones and discovered
how small our world can get. 
Took a quilt out for a niece. 
She received the family block quilt.
It was so much fun to finish!




Lots to do and work on in my sewing sanctuary!

Stay safe and sew on !
