JUQ 2012 Mystery Quilt

Remember on June 7th I wrote about the JUQ Mystery Quilt that I was excited about to do...so here I am cutting the fabrics as instructed for Step 1.

                                Step 2 with flying geese and half square blocks

                                 Step 3 with flying geese, square blocks and triangle blocks.

Step 4 done....the four blocks will not be joined together like this but these are the four units that are needed to be sewn in Step 4. So I shall wait for the next Step to out at the end of this month. See you again.

After all the next 3 steps done this is how the Mystery Quilt 2012 looks like....

Thank you to Kylie Kenny for organising this fun project....at one time, I couldn't believe that I could follow the instructions given being my age, I am very blurrr at times....

Looking forward to the next mystery quilt.

QSHS (Quilter's Scrappy Half Square Swap)

This is another online group that I am in which is called QSHS where we sew half square triangles using the fabric chosen by the members who wants to do this swapping. I am happy to sew these blocks especially from the scraps that I have been collecting. At the end of the day, the blocks that I will receive are from all the beautiful scraps. FUN!

Hello Birdie

Hello again with my last three birdies made last week following the pattern from Lisa of www.theredthread.com.au

The middle birdie is for my son and the other two will be given as a gifts yet to determine who I should give them too.

I will be doing another two more for my sister and my friend in Washington D.C. It is kind of fun doing this but the stuffing part is not to my liking. You will see cotton balls flying all over the place. See you again.

JUQ - 2012 Mystery Quilt

Well, here I am again. This time I am excited to work on this project by Just Us Quilters (JUQ) under its associated group named 2012 Mystery Quilt organised by experienced quilt maker Kylie Kenny from Australia. So the first step is to select fabrics which I don't have to buy but just go through my collections. I have chosen the four types of colours as instructed. So the next two weeks shall meet again....

Now changes made....:

So these fabrics will be my final destination for this wonderful and exciting project....see you in two weeks time.
