My Quilts, FMQ
THE DREAMTIME
All Free Motion Quilted on my Domestic Sewing Machine.
2013
2013
Now I can post what I have done.this year. I was held up a bit as we moved house halfway throught the year and things were to say the least very unsettled.
This was made as a gift for a special Family overseas for Christmas....hence the Aboriginal design
Sewn with Black silk YLI thread on top and fine line neutral coloured thread on the backing.
Be warned - Lots of photos, as there are a multitude of different fillers.. plus my multi-coloured thread quilted Australian wildlife, and some applique of more Wildlife.
Oh and 2 of my trademark Ladybugs.
There are a lot of photos... and I hope its not all too much after such a time with nothing from me at all :)
Straight ruler work above in places

One ladybug above..
Yes I did get some feathers of a sort in here
Some curved ruler work above
Mother and child here
Same Ladybug..
Somewhere among the above lot, there is a second ladybug, a snake wrapped round an applique piece.. and a lizard quilted in the middle in the black...but I couldn't find them myself when I put these up.
And some of the mug rugs that were also gifts.
I am now working on another quilt..but I will put those pictures up in a few days.
Those will be a work in progress.
Its so good to be back!!
