Last week was a busy week, by the end of the day I was too tired to do any sewing that required me to think, so I got this old quilt down off my "waiting for binding " pile and got to work. It only took 3 nights, makes you wonder doesn't it why I didn't do it earlier. This poor quilt has been sitting for 2 years just waiting to be finished.
I actually found it quite relaxing and very cosy on these chilly evenings.
Now its all done and I love it all over again.
Yesterday when I was doing my housework I decided to bring a bit of Spring into the house. I put all my winter quilts away and bought out my Fig tree favorites.
The room looks so much lighter now and very pretty.
Even the hallway has a new lease of life. I love this quilt, its called Sunshine Frolics by Nat Bird.
I hope you have had a good week and a restful weekend.
I am going to do some sewing this afternoon, I have another quilt just about ready for borders. Can't wait to show you.
Happy sewing. xx

Your latest finish is gorgeous Leanne! I have always loved this pattern- it is a wonderful variation on a 'star', isn't it?!
What do you think it is that makes you procrastinate the binding you silly girl. I love to do the binding. We need to talk : )
The quilts are lovely. Enjoy the freshness of Spring! Janita
Leanne the quilt is lovely. glad you didn't leave any longer, Enjoy.
Loving your new/old quilt Leanne. In face I'm suffering from 'LUV' overload this morning! I've been oooo'ing and ahhh'ing my way around your bog. What better way to spend my time.. a nice cup of tea.. squishy banana on toast and a healthy dose of inspiration!! Had a great time visiting.... smiley face here! Hugs...xxx

Good to finally have your pretty quilt finished. Spring is definitely in the air here too, time for a change.
What a pretty finish! Your spring quilts will certainly get you in the mood for the upcoming season.

I sometimes wonder too why I have left something so long to finish! Your quilt is gorgeous, I love the block in it. Your home looks fresh and pretty and just waiting for some spring weather!
What a wonderful finish, Leanne. Your quilt is gorgeous.
Leanne, you're getting so much done! I love all your quilts and how you have them displayed. They bring a lot of warmth to your rooms. I love the embroidery in your quilt too :)

Oh Leanne - it's such a beautiful quilt! I love the colours and the blocks. What pattern and fabrics did you use? Your home looks lovely with all those quilts decorating it. Spring is definitely on its way - just not this morning. 4 deg C here. Brrrrrrrrr!
Lovely, summery quilts! In fact, I was just thinking this morning that it's time for me to get out the fall quilts! I can't believe it's September 1 already! I love the border on the quilt you just bound. It's a gorgeous quilt!
