Checkerboard quilt

So I put my foot down on the quilting accelerator and finished one of my 7 quilt tops in various stages of development.  I've given myself a bit of a talking to and decided it's high time they got finished as tops at least - the sandwiching, quilting and binding can happen later.  Perhaps I'm just missing the wonderful feeling when you step back and view the finished top.  It's a lovely stage of the whole wonderful process for me.

I had a styling assistant help with the photos....or is it what you call photo-bombing?  Tilly takes such and interest in everything I do and likes to help at all times.

A burst of colour in Perth's grey winter!

 

Perth is enduring a very, very cold, windy and wet winter.  Perfect for hunkering down and crafting away.  Not that I can - I have a day job to go to :) 

 

I am methodically sewing in ends on this crochet throw - nearly finished a year or 6 ago!  Also on my crochet granny squares and I'm starting to join them AND working on my V-stitch.  The colour burst makes me feel alive at the end and beginning (I'm having a coffee and crochet a few trebles first thing in the morning, sssshhh don't tell my walking buddy who's away in Europe, that I'm shirking my walking duties, but it's far too wet anyhoo, Margaret :)

 

Colour and crochet make me happy!
