Two finished projects and a WIP.

Last year I was showing a fellow Elvis fan some of the Elvis fabrics in my stash, and she gasped "Ooooh!  What are you going to do with that one?"and I rashly replied "I guess I could make you a quilt".  Well, I couldn't go back on my word, could I?  She lives in Qld. and only comes down to Melbourne a few times a year, and I knew she was coming back in February, so I got my bum into gear and made this:

The back is a denim print fabric of which I have several metres in my stash, given to me by a friend who had decided she would never use it.  I thought it was perfect for Elvis' back!

This is the second tea cosy I have made for this year's teacosy festival at Bundoora Homestead.  But there is a slight problem....Ken has taken a fancy to it, and doesn't want me to donate it to the festival!  So I might be making another teacosy this week...

At the Eltham Quilt Shop sit and sew on Friday mornings, I have been mostly working on the hand stitched binding of recent quilts and wall hangings, but if I haven't got a quilt to work on, I need something else to take.  I was looking through my thousands of patterns (you know the feeling) and when I came across this one, I looked no further.   The magazine has it made up as a cushion, but I don't need any more cushions, so I'm thinking of making it into a framed picture or wall hanging, and hanging it in the chook house just to remind the girls that we do not tolerate moods.  Just keep laying eggs, thank you!
