Inspiration........

Well, after our get together  on saturday, I have been trying to do all sorts of things.
As my friend Natasha said, we have been introduced to a new website, it is called the Purl Bee ( thank you so much Lottie) & to join in the small challenge that Natasha has started, there is a project quilt being taught, it looks as though it will show a block per month, so I decided to join in ( you will have to carry on doing this now Natasha )
If I can remember how to add pictures I hope to show you my first attempt.......

This panel is called Courthouse steps.
The first part was tricky, trying to find my fabrics, & then when I did, choosing the colours I wanted to use.


Once I had cut them, I laid them out to see which way the colours looked best....
When that had been sorted, I started sewing........
The finished panel.....
I am quite pleased with the result even though some of the stitch lines are a bit wonky, I look forward to the next panel.











My other project is my halloween mini album, it is progressing well, but I will take some pictures when it is finished.
