[CFDeeDee]

I made myself this voodoo for my needles :P


And Cookie Monster

[Sarah]

Aww they are both great. The voodoo pincushion? And the cookie monster.. I love. Where did you get the pattern for him?

[Janice, Moderator]

Love them both, CFDeeDee.

[CFDeeDee]

@Sarah not sure about the cookie monster .. I have it copied from somewhere .. And the voodoo I got it after looking at some voodoo ideas on google with slight changes in the eyes.

@Janice Thank you ;D

[Sarah]

Fantastic CFDeeDee! Love the voodoo pincushion. it's a great idea.

[CFDeeDee]

Thanks Sarah :D

[Cherie]

Great work CFDeeDee!

[jaxnsmom]

CFDeeDee - love both, but what I really want to know is who is represented by that voodoo doll? ☺

I'll see what colors are currently her favorite.

[CFDeeDee]

@Cherie Thanks ;)

[CFDeeDee]

@J'sMom You mean who suggested the voodoo doll or who had the pattern?
I thought of it myself lol ^^"
And the pattern was from google images :P

[jaxnsmom]

It's a great pattern! What I actually meant was who does the voodoo doll represent, as in who are you mentally sticking that pin in? ☺

Okie dokie =]

[CFDeeDee]

@J'smom LOL .. I won't do a voodoo doll over someone, that'll be too easy to torture people around haha ;P

[Janice, Moderator]

It only took me 9 years to finish this. Although the top was finished in 2007, it was finally quilted. I sewed the binding on it this weekend. Done!

[Sandra, Moderator]

Looks great, Janice. Glad you finished. Is it for you?

[jaxnsmom]

Hooray for you Janice! I really like that pattern.

[Janice, Moderator]

Thanks. :) Yes, I will keep it. I'll put it on the bed for the summer. The one I currently have on the bed will be my winter quilt.

The pattern is called "Wish Upon a Star".

[Sarah]

Love the quilt Janice. I need a retreat to finish mine.

[Susan]

Congratulations on finishing your quilt Janice. It is beautiful :)

[Janice, Moderator]

Thanks Sarah & Susan.

I need a few more retreats, Sarah. I'm itching to start something new. Problem is, I just started something new. Plus, I have 8 tops waiting to be quilted and bound.

[Susan]

Haha Janice you beat me! I have 4 quilt tops waiting to be sandwiched.

[Sarah]

Ooh I really like the Janice =] it's lovely

[Janice, Moderator]

Thanks Sarah.

Hurry up, Susan. You're getting behind. :) One of my friends has 21 tops. She figures it's going to cost her a small fortune to get quilted. Do you do your own quilting, or do you have someone with a long arm do them? I try to do the smaller ones myself, but I'm not very good at doing them.

[Susan]

I do the quilting myself on my domestic machine. I've just finished an online course in using rulers for free motion quilting, so no excuse now, got to get on with finishing them.

[CFDeeDee]

Lovely work, Janice .. Never thought a quilt would take such a long time to finish !

[Janice, Moderator]

That course sounds interesting, Susan. Do you have a link for the website?

Thanks CFDeeDee. Generally, quilts don't take 9 years to make. That quilt top was started in 2007 and finished in 2007. Then it sat in my cupboard until two months ago when a couple friends insisted I get it quilted. The time involved depends on the complexity and size of the quilt. It also depends on how much time you spend sewing. Some people I know sew at least an hour every day. Lately, I've been sewing only at retreats - so 3-4 days, once or twice a year.

[Susan]

Hi Janice, I can highly recommend this course

http://www.punchwithjudy.com.au/shop/...

You can do it at your own pace, and Judy is very supportive in helping with everyone's questions.

[Janice, Moderator]

Thanks Susan. I watched the YouTube video and it looks really interesting.

[Trudy]

Beautiful quilt, Janice, and such lovely colours! I read it snowed (!) today in your neck of the woods, so you may have to wait a bit longer to use it.

[Janice, Moderator]

We had snow yesterday but it's all cleared away now. Some areas around us got a lot more. Crazy! But I`ll take the moisture any ways it comes. It`s been so dry.

[Sarah]

I've been busy making a few things lately. So here's my latest:

I made a hooded cardigan for my best friends baby, it's so cute and she'll defo grow into it and get use out of it.


And I finally made my elephant:
Isn't he cute.

[Janice, Moderator]

Sweet jacket, Sarah. The elephant is as well.

[Peggy]

That elephant is super cute!! The cardigan too :)

[Sandra, Moderator]

Amazing, Sarah!

[Lisa]

Love the cardigan and elephant, Sarah! You are so talented! :)

[Sarah]

Heheh I did a little Bombomb for Steve from Mario he's so cute =]



Thank you =] I am keen to do some other cardigans and things now, I found a cute little dress/top with little leggings to make that look adorable, so will ahve to make them at some point. I'm currently finishing off a baby blanket and making a baby mobile. My friend's baby is coming up to 6 month now and her christening is the end of July so hopefully I'll have them both done before then *fingers crossed*

I love my little elephant he is adorable, I forgot to show a side photo:

[Janice, Moderator]

Bombomb is so cute!

[Cherie]

Great work, Sarah!

[Deborah]

That little elephant is gorgeous! And beautifully even stitches.....

[jaxnsmom]

The cardigan's really cute, that's a lucky friend. But those elephant ears are super adorable!

[Sarah]

Hehe thank you. I love the ears too, they are adorable.

Been super busy making loads of things, I finally have a page on Facebook for selling and you can see the other stuff on there too. I don't want to bombard this thread with loads of photos: www.facebook.com/Yarnville

So for the latest creation. The dinosaur for Jmom

[Janice, Moderator]

The purple dinosaur is so cute!

[Lisa]

Loving your work, Sarah!

[Peggy]

I love it Sarah!!

[Sarah]

Hehe thank you =] I love making the dinosaurs. I've just finished my shawl/scarf. I need to block it tomoz then I'l take a photo. I'm in the middle of a Xmas blanket and making another unicorn a different pattern this time. I made a pink one for Annie's Christening then her newphew loved it so made one for him in blue:

[Sarah]

Love the dinosaur!

[jaxnsmom]

I can't wait to get the dinosaur! The colors are perfect. My niece is going to love it. I adore the unicorn - he's so cute.
