Daisy-Do completed!!

I really hope you have enjoyed stitching my Daisy-Do BOM!

Today I am sharing the last block and the quilt assembly instructions. 

Block 5 is the same as Block 1...

 

...and all five blocks together make this lovely wallhanging sized quilt!

 

You can download the pattern for the final block and the full assembly instructions HERE. 

Please send me photos of your finished Daisy-Do so I can share them on my Friday Show & Tell blog posts! :-)

I'll keep Daisy-Do as a free download until December 1st, then it disappears. 

You'll find all the block links HERE.

Now to start working on next year's BOM. 

This year I shared two BOMs - ~Bouquet~ and 'Daisy-Do' - but next year there will just be the one and it will run for 12 months. Hope you'll be stitching it with me from January.

In the meantime I'm just finishing a free design I'll be sharing for Christmas. Want a sneak peek?

I should have it ready for you closer to December. :-)

A few of you asked what Homespun issue the Flower Fairy pattern can be found in. It's issue 66 (Vol 9.11). The designer is Annie Smith.

It's wet and cool here today, such a pleasant change from the tropical heat. Perfect sewing weather, and as my hands are all healed from the copious amounts of aloe vera I caked them in overnight I can settle right down and do some. :-)

Hope you're having some sewing fun too!

Daisy-Do ~ Block 4!

It's already October 1st! My, this year has flown by!

Today I am sharing Block 4 of Daisy-Do...

~daisies~

 

 

The Cottage Garden thread looked gorgeous in the chain stitched wording, those pretty colours definitely taking centre stage! :-)

If you want to purchase some of these threads check out the supplier listings and colour charts at the Cottage Garden Threads blog.

(I purchase mine through Cath at Cathron Country)

Only one more block to share and you can stitch it together. I will be sharing the finishing pattern along with the final block on November 1st. Can't wait!!

You can download the pattern for Block 4 of Daisy-Do HERE.

Have a lovely day! We're enjoying Mr E's last real day of school holidays before the rattle and hum of another school term begins.

Daisy-Do Block 3...and something extra!

How are you going with your Daisy-Do BOM blocks so far?

Thank you for all the photos you've sent me - it's wonderful to see how you are making this BOM your very own, with your special style and trims!

Today I'm sharing block 3, 'Bowl of Daisies'...

You can download the pattern for block 3 HERE.

If you follow our Gum Tree Designers blog you'll also find that today is my turn to offer a free design! 

You loved the orange bag I made for the August Challenge (HERE), so I thought I'd make something similar for my September Gum Trees freebie!

It's a cute market bag, *Fresh as a Daisy*, with a sweet ruffle topped front pocket and happy spring daisies to  make you smile!

Visit our Gum Tree Designers blog HERE to download the pattern.

Have a wonderful first day of Spring (or Autumn if you're up top of the globe!)

PS: For those of you in Australia and NZ I have some wonderful fabric in my Ebay Store at the moment. I'll be adding more things today, so come have a look! You can visit my Ebay shop HERE.

Back online, temporarily....so let me share ~Daisy-do~, Block 2!!

The phone line drops in, and it drops out. When there are 3 lights shining green on our modem we all run for our laptops! LOL!!

While I have internet connection I am going to share with you the next block in my ~Daisy-do~ BOM a day early! 

Block 2 ~ Daisy-a-day

You can download the pattern HERE.

Have fun!

* Daisy-Do* BOM - block 1!

Thank you for all your wonderful messages of support and encouragement, and all your prayers!

We are plum tuckered out from all the house-hunting already, but we have one particular house we'd be happy to move into...we're just waiting for a call back to say we can see inside. Keep praying. :-)

Here it is, block 1 of my new free BOM, ~Daisy-Do~...

You can download the pattern HERE

Please leave a comment with a link to your blog as you stitch the blocks - I can't wait to see what fabrics and threads you'll use! The focus of this BOM is embellishments, and letting the buttons, beads, and threads bring *life* to the simple designs. Be as creative as you like with it - maybe you have notions you've been saving to use some day? Why not let this be the day. :-)

I'll share block 2 on August 1st. Perhaps you'll make a few of these by then in all different colours? The finished size of the wallhanging will be 11 x 34 inches. It's a long one, perfect for those wall spaces that need something narrow. 

NEWS! Blossom passed her Learner Driver test today!!! \o/\o/
