Cushion Capers

This is my version of the challenge 'make a cushion in a week' in which I added all the elements but did my own thing to suit me!

Underground Railroad blocks

Here's my North Star block which is the penultimate block in this project, the final block being a story to tie all the Underground Railroad quilt together.
North Star...

And my story block...

This came with mini photos of blocks in place but I replaced them with photos of my own blocks I've made to tie everything together. I've really enjoyed this project with my online quilting friends and have acquired some fabric for the back of the quilt which will be perfect so watch this space....but not too closely as I need some time to complete this quilt, and this is a keeper quilt so it's all mine.....

Catching up with you all....

Hi All

To those of you who are below par for whatever reasons, I'm sending out virtual hugs to you, and 'feel better soon' wishes too!

I'm still working on the quilt for my work colleague but progress is very slow as I'm suffering from a fibromyalgia flare-up and boy! the pain in my arms is severe, so much so that simple tasks like just picking up a hot kettle is proving difficult and painful. I know it'll get better if I pace myself and rest so that's exactly what I'm going to have to do. I've been doing smaller (less taxing on my arms) projects in between so after completing machine applique on 4 blocks for above quilt, I managed to put the binding on my Rennie Macintosh wallhanging yesterday. I loved this when I saw it and with a gift from a quilty friend, I've completed the wallhanging for me! YES ME! hahaha...eyes off!  For those of you who know me well, you'll know that I never usually keep what I make but this was for me from the start so it's going in my hall...or bedroom...or lounge...well somewhere because I love it.
And here it is -

Thanks Tessa x
