Patra's Place will be mostly about my linen collection, but also about my SINS (Stuff I'll Never Stitch), UFOs (UnFinished Objects) and projects that I am currently working on. Since I created this first blog, I have diversified somewhat! You can see the list of my other blogs, and my favourite websites and blogs by other people, on the sidebar.

A new quilt top nearly finished.
I received a heap of Aussie icon fabric to use for quilt tops for Aussie Heroes Quilts, and amidst the mayhem that is my life at the moment, I have put together some of the fabric featuring Australian birds. All I have to do now is the borders - a border of the same green as the sashing, and an outer border of another colour, probably brown. Then it will be on the way to Jan Maree to make up into a quilt for one of our Aussie Heroes, who must be feeling depressed since the deaths of five soldiers earlier this week...

That fabric looks good, nice and cheerful
ReplyDeleteThis looks beautiful and it is for a good cause is more beautiful..
ReplyDeleteHow lovely!! About 4 years ago I started a 'U.S.A. State Bird and flower' quilt. My first try at embroidery. I did 12 blocks. Joined a tatting group...as the old saying goes...that's all she wrote! lol My sister keeps telling me its like an old friend. It's there, when I am ready to start again. *smile*
