Fabrics and Threads

Hi! My name is Nicky. Although I won't actually be starting my Vignette quilt this year I wanted to share my fabrics with the group. I am using the range that Leanne has used. It is so bright and pretty, different from the civil war reproduction fabrics which fill my stash.

Although I am looking forward to starting this quilt one day, I am currently working on my Dear Jane quilt which will be my wedding quilt and I am racing to have it finished by my wedding date next year. I bought all these lovely fabrics from Patchwork with Gail B and threads from Stitches from the Bush before I got engaged and wanted to make a wedding quilt. So, until I have finished that my Vignette quilt has been stashed away in it's own tub ready and waiting for me.
Happy stitching every-one!
Nicky

Hello and My Start

Hello,

My name is Anne Marieke, I'm from the Netherlands, 46 years old, a translator, living with my partner Marcel and our four cats Elvis, Minty, Kruimel (meaning 'crumb' in Dutch) and Luna ('moon' in Spanish).

I fell in love with this project as soon as I laid my eyes on it. I guess I got to it rather late, but it is never too late to start!

These are some of the materials I have chosen on top of what I will be using from my stash.


There is not yet a lot to see, but those stitching this project will know that the stitcheries are quite time-consuming, but so much fun to stitch!

Only a small part of the border for block 1 got done so far, but now that I have chosen my colours (it took me forever to find the right greens to go with my fabrics) it will go a bit faster.


Looking forward to seeing your progress!

Thank you, Perri, for letting me join in the fun.

Hello

Hello everyone, my name is Liz luv 2 cre8te blog
I am a newbie to the Vignette blog.
I learned about this from a lovely lady friend Peg from Happy in Quilting. (Who gently twisted my arm)
I had planned to finish all my UFOs and this indeed is a very looooooooooong list but I have been dreaming of doing this quilt since I first saw it in January.
So it wasn't too hard to convince me to join along ( and I'm sure one or three!!!!!!!!! quilty diversions won't hurt ) So thanks to Peg for convincing me and also to Perri for starting this great blog.

I am looking forward to making a start on this lovely quilt this weekend. I have chosen my fabrics. I am going to use the 'Flower Sugar' range by Lecien. I bought these fat quarters last year so I'm glad to be using my stash. I love this range lots of lovely, yummy spring colours and
gorgeous roses. Both my favourites. Along with stitchery and Leanne Beasley designs which are also my favourites. I am currently stitching the 'Down in the Garden' BOM as well. Which is a gorgeous quilt too and is also another favourite thing for me to do, gardening.


I can't wait to get stuck into transferring the stitcheries and churn dash blocks. and yes I am still working on that loooooooooooooong list of UFOs.
