Been having some fun……

I have been honoured in having my project published in Jenny’s magazine. I am really  excited about it and I hope all who purchase her magazine like my design also. I had lots of fun sewing it and love how its the right size for holding all my vintage hankies that I love to collect.

 Jenny’s magazine is fabulous value for the money and she always has lots of lovely patterns in it. It’s only $4.00 per issue in pdf format! This issue is No. 14….gosh she has been busy….I don’t know how she does it.

The next 8 issues Jenny is giving tutorials on how to sew her "A Christmas Story" quilt! This is a really lovely quilt and you can’t miss it. Pop on over to her Elefantz Home blog and subscribe to her lovely magazine. You wont regret it.

So what have I been up to….Hmmm….Well I am madly sewing up a quilt at the moment… this one is called Spin City  by Miss Rosie’s Quilt Co. I am doing mine in earthy country colours and I am loving sewing it. So quick and easy.

Over at Janiac’s Unite blog there is lots of sewing getting done by some very talented ladies.

Have you been sewing Dear Jane blocks and have come to a standstill? Pop on over to Janiac’s Unite blog and become a member if you want to post your progress with your blocks. It’s a great way to be encouraged and encourage others with the Dear Jane blocks for the quilt.

I actually got three done this month. Gee….still a long way to go but I have told myself it will be a long time progress. No chance of being bored that’s for sure.

My online store is still being attended to and will be back up and running very soon.

Hope you all are having a fabulous week and not being bored… Hugs to all……

 

Do you Dear Jane? Are you a Janiac?

                                  

I have been doing Dear Jane blocks to make up the quilt for a couple of years now and haven't got very far. I have done 23 blocks all up. Well over a period of two years that's pretty slow!! Pretty pathetic really.

  

Well Dawn and I were talking about doing these blocks on a regular basis…a bit like one a month (at least).

We needed something to keep track of how many we have done and also to be able to encourage each other on. 

Then we thought …well there has to be others that would like to get together each month and talk, show and encourage about the blocks too.

So Janiac’s Unite was created.

Now ….Janiac’s you ask? You have heard of maniacs haven't you? Well those who are keen on doing the Dear Jane blocks tend to be rather a bit too keen….. hence Janiacs. So getting together on this Janiac’s Unite blog is a great way for us all to do these blocks.

Go on over HERE and leave a comment if you would like to join in on the blog to show, talk and encourage each other with sewing these fabulous blocks. Either Dawn or I will then add you to the blog and you will be able to put up a picture of your block/s you do each month as well as tell us your progress and encouragement too.

We have a Janiac’s Unite button you can add to your blog and link it to Janiac’s Unite.

Just right click and save it to your computer and put it on your blogs sidebar and link it with this web address http://janiacsunite.blogspot.com/

Of course we expect you to post once a month on the blog and if you miss two months you will be dropped off the blog to make way for someone new who will post monthly with their block/s. By being strict like this enables the blog to have a constant turnover of posts and of course lots of encouragement.

We can take another 98 Janiacs.

We want to get these quilts made!! lol.

Dawn and I hope you will join us on this fabulous venture of sewing these awesome blocks and we look forward to seeing your blocks too.

So hop on over and join us and tell your friends and fellow Janiacs.

Hugs to all……
