Less than two weeks before I head to Young for the Lions Quilt Show, 18-19 May, at Young Town Hall.
So exciting to be offered the opportunity to be one of the stall holders.
I'm so looking forward to seeing the quilts on display and chatting to everyone who can make it.
You can find out more about the show on the Lions Club of Young NSW Facebook page.
See you there!

Progress at last on the little quilt I'm making.
It finally feels like I will meet the second birthday deadline.
It was such a relief to work out the layout for this quilt. It started as an idea based around a block made using the 3 inch Drunkard Path template and progressed to including circular applique blocks. I was struggling with it because I was making blocks I liked without knowing how to use them.
This all changed when I started stitching on the Meadow Star fabric. Working on a completely different project not focused on blocks, layout and with no time constraints just freed me up to look at the quilt differently.
I still have to cut out, piece and add a border of Double Four Patch blocks. These blocks are quicker to make than the Drunkard Path blocks and will, fingers crossed, look nicer.
Once the top is finished I will post another picture.
I have not been making notes and think it unlikely I will write a pattern for it in case you are wondering.
The Meadow Star Menagerie print by Ruby Star Society is such a fun piece of fabric to stitch and applique on.
