Life is a little patchy for me!

It all started in  November 2010 when Evelyn took me to the Quilt and Craft show in Brisbane.  That is what started me on my sewing addiction, what too shy to even think about quilting, seriously, quilting is way harder then making a basic dress or skirt!

Once (1) year later, we return to the 2011 Craft and Quilt Fair on one sunny Saturday morning, I had the pleasure of catching up with Rebecca A and meeting Rebecca S - together with Evelyn (after preparing with some breakfast at Poppy's Cafe at South Bank) we braved the hordes of, let's say enthusiastic mature ladies who knew what they were there for!

Ok, scene set, now I decided this was the place to purchase my simple quilt pre cut pack to try quilting for the first time! And so I found Drunkards Path.


So here is Drunkard's Path Pack, 11 pre cut half circles and 11 pre cut square with semi circle cut out of one side.



So before I can get started with sewing I had to arrange 
Them into patches, so please see step 2, matching the Squares!






I am now up to step three, sewing each of the set together, the first 4 or 5 were a little 'skew' but I am onto it now!


Watch this space for the third shot, all the sets sewn together and playing around with options on how to place them together!


Look at the pictures here....SO MANY OPTIONS!  I am addicted to this simple quilt patch of drunkards Path, next I am do a modern fresh 2 maybe 3 colour one.
