A crafty home

I've joined Sandra's 'Cherry Heart' blog for having a pretty crafty home and been inspired to get on with my 'must do' lists. So yesterday I took some photos of my craftroom and the MESS it's in (Bronwyn you'll be surprised, it's sure not it's tidy self). Here goes...


We had the grandkids visiting then several projects finished in a hurry and you know how once you 'stash' some mess in a room it seems to grow all by itself? The above is the outcome.
Anyway, I was home today so I spent some time there this afternoon and now it looks like this . . .  







It still needs the finer sorting that I've been meaning to do for several months now, so I'll post when that's done.
Also this afternoon I got out a quilt top I made several years ago and it's supposed to hang on the wall above the sofa in this room so I did most of the quilting on it, edge quilted around the pink, blue and outer stars. I still have to quilt the white bits, not sure whether to echo quilt or filler quilt, any ideas anyone ? ?

My husband wants me to confess that there is now a big pile of bedding in the laundry waiting to me washed and/or folded and put away and a couple of boxes in the hallway waiting for him to store away tomorrow, but he's still real impressed with what I achieved today.

  3. Hey. Good job on your room. For your quilting I would suggest filler quilting. Something smallish to flatten it out and accentuate the star.
