Well last night was lots of fun, I lost my voice from all of the talking I was doing (nothing new in that) and I am definitely ‘that lady with all the kids’ but that’s ok. I can live with that. I had one champagne and lots of sparkling water while retro daddy got to enjoy some beers and I suspect mass will be a little quieter this morning as 6pm mass is much more acceptable than 9am after a late night out. Oh and my wardrobe choice was spot on….very happy but I knew I couldn’t go wrong with that little dress.
And on friday I managed to quilt this little quilt. It’s made from a hunky dory honey bun and another fabric from the range. It’s very pretty and floral…just how I like it. The quilting didn’t take me too long and now it’s just waiting to be neatened up and the binding can go on. And I’d kind of like to try this method with rounded corners which I think looks really cute……….
I just love the back which made use of the leftover blocks. Hunky Dory is one of my favourite fabric ranges and I actually have 8 or 9 honey buns ready to go into the store as well as a range of clearance hunky dory fabrics. I just need to find an hour or so to get stuck in. Finding just an hour is hard to do.
Corrie you looked great, glad you had a good time.
Love this quilt, it’s gorgeous. you are amazing what you get done with 4 little ones!!! I am in awe!! LOL.

Your quilt looks so gorgeous and girly. I love Hunky Dory too
That quilt is gorgeous! I don’t know how you find the time to do it! It would look great with those rounded corners. 😀

LOVE that quilt! Yummy
I love the quilt and those curved corners are one of my favorite ways to finish off a quilt if it’s not going to cut into the design. Beautiful.
Very pretty. I just cut up what was left of a hunky dory layer cake I had for a new quilt. I’d better check your shop so I can make it bigger 😉
I adore that quilt! I really need to learn how because I would love quilts like that for my girls’ beds. Jealous of your talent!!
Hi Corrie
Love the quilt. I have a hunky dory jelly roll here waiting to be turned into a quilt. I had a look in your shop for the Hunky Dory fabric but couldn’t find it. Can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks

And that dress is gorgeous and I am glad you enjoyed yourself!!
Oh all you quilters need to stop blogging such gorgeous creations because I sooooo want to make a quilt, but I just don’t think I have the patients… or skill! LOL
Looking forward to meeting you at ausblogcon
LOVE this quilt Corrie
You are the girl for turning out amazing creations! I have started free motioning my first quilt ever for my sons 1st birthday which is tomorrow and have watched your tutorial heaps! Thanks for that….but yours is much neater!! 
It’s beautiful Corrie! I’m amazed that you had time to even make that little quilt!
So happy you had such a great night out. I really enjoyed our school’s ‘Icebreaker’ last year and I’m looking forward to the 25th when this year’s version is on.
Your quilt is beautiful, as ever. x
The quilt is beautiful!
Great quilt Corrie, and your stipopling is really improving! Would you eb able to let me know when the Hunky Dory is in your shop? I’ve been wanting some!
This is gorgeous. Thanks for the inspiration! I’m thinking of doing something similar with purples.
I am in amazement at the things you’re capable of making! So clever and that quilt is just so pretty!
You quilt is gorgeous, I’m often the woman with all of those kids too. They sure keep me entertained!
Yay for being the “mum with all the children”, love Posie
now I think I have just realised youa re retro mummy from the notebook mag – I was reading an old copy – aug 2010 – at lunch today and there – i think – you were – trying to teach me a few crafty things
BTW love the new quilt and the dress last night looked fab on – what a beautiful family – best le xox
Stunning quilt!
Love the quilt and the quilting. The back looks great with the extra bits. I’ve been doing backs with the extra bits lately too and I love the feeling of not wasting that matching fabric.
Looks great. I love the idea of rounded corners. That would really destress the process. Cherrie
Glad the night was a success…your quilting looks Fabulous…well done.
cheers
It’s very pretty
So glad to hear you had a good time. You can never go wrong with a black dress (well you can, but you know what I mean!). xx
That quilt is soooo beautiful
Please tell us when the fabric is in your store. My m-i-l wants to sew my daughter a quilt, and that is the first fabric i’ve seen that I just LOVE
thanks for sharing your beautiful work
great stippling
Yes, so glad hearing you both enjoy last night. After going out by night it’s really difficult to arrive on time to mass in the eArly morning, isn’t it? And very hard… I love your blog (I am also proud of being catholic..)
Georgous quilt, absolutely fabulous
Your quilt is just gorgeous!
