Quilts by Tess: Birthday Present
http://quiltsbytess.blogspot.com/2011/10/birthday-present.html
Saturday, 22 October 2011. So my birthday was last Saturday and as E was working that day and night, I decided to do a patchwork workshop at The Cottonwood Tree. In Kilcullen. The class was nice and small (3 of us) and taught by Katie. We learned a quick strip piecing method of doing a 9-patch block. It was a fun class, especially getting to pick fabrics, ribbon and buttons from the shop. Rose had fat quarters already cut or she would cut from the bolt if there was a particular print. Things be a growing!

http://quiltsbytess.blogspot.com/2011/11/busy-busy-busy.html
Sunday, 20 November 2011. So during an unbelieveably busy fortnight in work, I had volunteered to take a stall at our annual Market Fair that is held in the canteen during lunch. This is my display, and I just want to say thanks a mil to my colleagues who called in and supported me on my first sales attempt. Below are a number of the items that I had for sale. 30 December 2011 at 22:05. Hi, just wanted to say that your oilcloth bag is great. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Quilts by Tess: June 2011
http://quiltsbytess.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, 25 June 2011. So it's been a busy Saturday. E is sick with the flu, so I left him with the remote, wrapped up in a duvet, on the couch. Plenty of sport on the telly to keep him sane. While he was feeling sorry for himself, I sewed! I finished the striped sports bag. I somehow ended up with too little fabric on the top and had to sew an extra bit on. Lucky for me I had a bit that was the right length and width. The zip went in no problem, woohoo! Anyway 'til next time. Links to this post. Well t...

Quilts by Tess: New Year...
http://quiltsbytess.blogspot.com/2012/01/new-year.html
Monday, 2 January 2012. And it's set to be a bit of a mad one. Moving house in June. Getting married in October. We have at least 2 weddings to go to, my exams, E's Thesis and who knows what else will come up throughout the year. Over the last month I have completed 2 quilts:. 1 a rag quilt, lap-size for E. 2 And as my very first quilt was a wedding present for N and J (finished this time last year), I thought it was only right that their new little baby girl should also get one. 2 January 2012 at 17:38.

Quilts by Tess: Attack of the caterpillars... and the nerves
http://quiltsbytess.blogspot.com/2011/10/attack-of-caterpillars-and-nerves.html
Monday, 10 October 2011. Attack of the caterpillars. and the nerves. Well I finished a quilt for my friend, Chuck's first baby, Chloe. I apologise for the quality of the photo's but they were taken at 6 in the morning. Us girls all got together last week to welcome baby Chloe and give Chuck the girly night in she deserves. I suppose you could call it a baby shower. Anyway all I got all night is: "You're next! Better go make a(nother) list. 22 October 2011 at 00:03. Beautiful quilt and great colours :).
