Quilting design around the dinosaurs



Well I have finally finished the Dinosaur quilt for the two DGKs in Adelaide. Kate helped pick the buttons for the eyes, and it is now ready to go. I saw the dinosaur applique patches in Spotlight ages ago, and thought they would be good for the labels. Pink for Kate, and blue for Thomas.


Labels for the Dinosaur quilt

When we were in Queensland a while back, I bought the DGKs both a money box with little dinosaurs on top, with the name Thomasaurus and KatieRaptor on them, they were sooo cute. Will try and get a photo of them. All I have to do now is deliver it.



And I am showing off my hexies too! All you ladies making the small ones, forget it! I am into making these 7 inch ones with a 5 inch centre. Lovely and quick to make, and again, uses up lots of scraps. One we made for the craft club I go to on Wednesdays has about 300 in it, which will cover a queen sized bed. I have made about 80 already. Yes, they are quilt as you go.



Finished hexies, sorting out colours, lots more to make......




Cheers for now, and Happy Sewing!

PS: Have finally finished these travel cases, which are so easy to make. I have been using Fat 1/8ths that I have been receiving from a swap I am in.
