OPAM Finishes - May

OPAM Finishes

It is (almost) the end of the month so it's time to report my OPAM finishes for May.

This, I am hoping, will be a new monthly post for me.

Let's see if I remember to do one next month.

1. Mug rug (for a Swap)

2. 12" Welcome Mini for my Secret partner

3. Boy Story Quilt

4. Boy Story Quilt Pillow

5. Mini Quilt for Doll Quilters Monthly Swap

6. Blueberry Crumb Quilt

7. "Apron" for the Alphabet Challenge

8. New Bag from a kit I got for Mothers Day

9. Crowns for Tilan

My OPAM finishes for the previous months are listed on my side bar.

- For those who may not have seen a "OPAM Finish" Blog Post before -

For something to qualify it has to be a complete finish. 

So things like a BOM Block, a "Swap Block" 

or a Flimsy (quilt top) are not a finish.

Enjoy your day doing something you love

SKOW progress

SKOW - My Favourite Things Quilt

I have completed my May blocks for this quilt this afternoon.

Sewing Block

Best Friends

and together

and the strip for this month was sewn to the quilt last month.

It feels good to be keeping up to date with this one.

Only a couple more months to go and it will be a finished flimsy.

Enjoy your day.

12" Mini Swap

Dear Secret Swap Partner,

I have finished your cute little 12" Welcome Mini, would you like to see it?

The centre stitchery is from Rosalie Quinlan and is part of her

 "Little Patchwork Village" Wall Quilt pattern.

It is now all gift wrapped and ready to head home to you

sometime between now and the posting date so

 I guess that will also be a surprise :o)

Enjoy your day.

Stitch it for Christmas .. a new book

With all my Christmas sewing at the weekend 

I have found myself looking at a few new books to add to my collection this morning

and guess what I have just ordered?

Stitch it for Christmas

I just LOVE Lynette Anderson Designs

and at just over $11 with free postage (worldwide) I didn't think I could go wrong!

If you are interested there is a link on my side bar, just here on the right.

I might have also ordered the Tilda's Christmas Ideas book also but don't be telling hubby OK

It can be our little secret!

Have a great day, hugs, Sharon
