Another Winning Scot........

So, Mr Murray wasn't the only success story yesterday.

Some of you might recall me posting this, a few weeks ago -
I made it with the intention of entering it into the Quilters' Guild Regional Day in Perth, last Saturday. I wasn't able to go in person but our local Guild Rep, Tricia, kindly took it along and submitted it for me.................
............and it came in FIRST!! Woo hoo, I am well chuffed.
And how brilliant to receive a rosette that matches my fabrics so well!!

Yesterday, I also received my free Spoonflower fat 1/4 - all it cost was $2 shipping, thanks to Susan for alerting me to the offer. I snapped up this gorgeous Princess & the Pea fabric, I love it.
And last weekend, I made some cushions for my impatient daughter - we had shopped for the fabric a week before and she seemed to think four new cushion covers would just miraculously appear. (By the way, The Cotton Print Factory shops are slowly beginning to stock quilting cottons, they have started with some Amy Butler @ £9.95m.)

  1. Well done winning Scot! I like your $2 FQ too. If I knew that you could whip up cushions so quickly I would have put my order in too! Di x

  8. Congratulations on the win!
    P.S. You mean the sewing fairies didn't visit your house when they knew you had cushions to make? You must have upset them last time they visited...

  9. First of many Grand Slam wins I hope and so deserved !

    The impatience of youth....no can't remember too long ago! She knows you work miracles on the sewing machine she just doesn't realise they take time! Or that you might just have other things to do!

  12. Those cushions are all lovely versions of each other with great fabric choice. Funny but I ordered the same H R print from Spoonflower too!
