Bella Parade top finished

I have finished the Bella Parade top, and its gorgeous! I love the colours and working with solids. Its really cool, looks so clean and fresh.

This will be my first attempt to handquilt. I will be using embroidery yarn in different colours. Waiting for the instructions :o)

So long!!

What to call this post.... :o)

Im lousy with titles, I know - I try my best but sometimes its just not possible to come up with something interesting and catching. Like today, but heres the post all the same - title or not :o)

I have finished the center of the Bella Parade Quilt. This is a fun miniquilt to make and its quite fast, but now I have to wait for the next steps next week. This is 12" x 12".

I have also made the last blocks of my P2 Modern Solids Quilt. So next is the sashing and then the top is finished.

This is how the blocks looks together on my designwall. Yeah, looks nice :o)

This is what I had to show this time, so long :o) And have a wonderful Sunday!

Bella Parade

I have started cutting all the pieces for this miniquilt, thats this weeks task - tiny pieces.. This is for the log cabins, the square in the middle is 1".

We are piecing the center next week, but I couldn't help it - I had to do the log cabins, the colours looked so yummi :o) So I did, and here they are, 3" each.

Just to give you the hint of the size...

As you probably understand, I have never pieced such small log cabins before :o)

One of my favourite flowers are peonies, the variety, the big flowers, the smell, the colours - they are absolutely gorgeous! I have several in my garden, but its too early for them yet, even if we have wonderful weather with almost 25 C :o) So some days ago I found these beauties in the shop - enjoy!

Wishing you a wonderful sunday, and if you are from US - a great Mum's day :o)
