Tis The Season - finish

At last I am finished with my TTS quilt .. It really has taken a while but then I discovered that I am far too closely with both the quilting was and that the correct fabric would be used for edging. Has scratched up quilting again and then I had to replace the fabric to finish the edge. But this was my OUTTURN of Tis the Season :)



Thanks to Chookyblue for all your support under this Stitch-a-long for TTS..


Take care!

TTS update...

Hi to all you great girls :)
I just want to say my TTS quilt had stranded after my horrible qulting :(
I hate to unravel sewn stitches. Therefore, it has not happened so much more here. But tonight I will do it and hope it goes well. Then we'll see how it will be quilted. But as I said it's not Christmas yet ;-) and it must be clear before that ;-)























Take care girl and you all had done a great work on yours TTS quilt :)

Marica´s block update...

Slowly, slowly I got finish my blocks for the quilt but I´m not sure if  I´ll finish it in time. 
But you never know ;-)
I have seen many beautiful finished quilts and many who are about to be finished:)
and they all have their own charm though we have assumed the same pattern ..
Good luck to complete your projects :)


See you later!

Finally ...

At last I have borders around the blocks that are finished with embroidered. So now is the month of May block began and not too far away  :)
A collective praise for all the lovely TTS block that you all have done. It will be fun and see when everyone made their blocks finished and see how different it has become even though we sew the same pattern ..

Good luck with your continued work!

Hello Girls...

Hello!
Would write a little presentation of myself:) My name is Marica and owns the blog Enlgating and live in northern Sweden. I've had this hobby for about 8 years and fabric stash with all "ufp" seems to only grow higher.
Has complied with the first round Stitch-a-long project and now that it would be a new so I thought I jump on. This weekend, I thought that boot up with to draw up all the blocks and then I think that the fabrics will be having may be something from my fabrics. But right now it is not firmly decided yet .. The only thing I know is that I will use my DMC fg221 then we see where it goes on ..

Good luck!
Marica
