T on Tuesday

I am joining Elizabeth for T on Tuesday with.... yes, a cup of tea!  I am busy playing with my sewing machine.. I am making a bag to hold the quilt I just finished.
This is the quilt... and in real life the blue is more aqua than it seems to be on my 'pooter screen!
Close up of the butterflies and the binding around the edge.
So that is me for today... beavering away in the cool of the basement... upstairs is a bit warm but the cats love it!! LOL

  1. I always like when you drink tea from a "proper" cup and saucer. You are good at that.

    Your quilt is adorable, and that bag will really compliment it. You are such a good seamstress. All I can sew is paper (and a few art quilts that don't even get edges). I admire your seamstress skills.

    Thanks for joining T today, dear friend.

  2. I just enlarged the first photo and noticed all the stitches on your machine. You have one super sewing machine. I also see you leave an empty bobbin on your bobbin threader, too. I thought I was probably the only person who did that.

  3. I totally love that quilt, I so wish I could learn how to sew, my Mum gave me her machine, but I just cannot thread it :( xxxx

  8. The quilt is beautiful and the sewing machine is awesome, but I was truly impressed with how organized you are! Of course I am talking about the pin cushion, scrap collector mat you obviously made with pockets for tools, etc!

  9. Hi, and Happy T Day! Your quilt is so cute, and great for spring. Hope you're enjoying the onset of spring, as we here in the States are settling into autumn. Take care!

Thank you for taking the time to leave your comment, it is truly appreciated - sort of confirms that it is more than my Mum and husband that read this thing! :)
