The Sun is Shining!

The sun is back out in Brisbane and I have been working on another of my projects which I have had on the go for quite a while - my Sunflower Quilt. Sunflowers are one of my favourite flowers. This one is destined to be a wall hanging. It will be vivid and cheerful and was inspired by the Bernina Sunflower Quilt of years gone by that was used to promote one of their machines. 

It will be a combination of hand embroidery, machine applique and stitching. My Bernina is a basic model ( 26 years of hard work and still going strong) and nothing at all like the model that was showcased by this quilt, hence the hand embroidery. I am looking forward to seeing it finished which I predict will still be a long way off.

it just wouldn't be right to only have one project on the go and they do say that variety is the spice of life. My quilting spice rack is quite full and I like it that way.

Happy stitching.
