W.W.S.T aka, What We Sewed Tuesdays

In an attempt to stop being so slack with my blog, I have decided that I should share with you guys what my Mum and I sew each Tuesday.
It is pretty much the only definite time each week that I get things done!
so...
The last couple of weeks we have been working on getting these tops done.


We were a bit late to the party with the quilt along. As in, It was over before we started but anyway...


Mum used Fandango by Kate Spain. How awesome does it look!?!
We both went with a colour wash design rather than a mish mash.


I used Pure by Sweetwater.
I had plans of giving this away but I am not so sure any more. it is kinda masculine with the colours but when you look close at the fabrics, They are full of flowers and hearts.


I guess I will have to wait and make up my mind when it is all finished and quilted.
We are ordering the backing asap and can't wait to get quilting on these babies!
Hope you have had a great week!

Do you guys know Angela?

Do you guys know Angela?
If you don't then you are missing out!
She is a quilter that is based In Kansas City. In fact, She is now quilting out of the Quilt Shoppe each week.
This chick is amazing, In fact I have mentioned before that she should have a cape! Her quilts are a work of art!


I sent over a quilt top and back to her last year and look how it returned!!!


She did a swirly zig zag design in each of the strips and peeper border and an ace design to fill in the rest.
I love this quilt! Yep, I hate to say it but I think this is going to take over the place of the Neptune quilt on the back of the couch!


Her photos are heaps better than mine, She has got snow everywhere and they still look better! Anyway, go and check out her blog and say G'day, She is in the process of moving into what looks like an awesome new home!
