Winter Garden

The sun was out for a little while this morning and even though Spring wont be here for weeks, the garden knows it is on the way.

Two little ones.

I have two more little English Paper Piecing Quilt tops ready to finish. They have been keeping my fingers warm during the very cold and Wintery weather we have been having. I will put off quilting them for a while because I have some large tops to complete and measure for wadding before a trip to our favourite shop, http://www.patchworkwithgailb.com/

Pecan Pie

I made a Pecan Pie for Canada Day. T&N lived and worked in Whistler during 2005 before traveling in Europe. While they were away I made my first Canada Quilt in rich Autumn colours using the Amish Diamond in the Square design. I incorporated the Canadian flag in the quilting. They brought me back some fat quarters from a local Patchwork shop in Jasper and I have made three more quilts in the same design.

I have a large Quilt top in greens and mauves nearly finished that I am going to have machine quilted, but when these 1/2 Inch paper pieces arrived I just had to get started on another little quilt!
