Welcome to my blog. It's always great reading other people's blogs-looks great fun to do. So, now I've got some time to indulge myself in patchwork and quilting, I thought I'd have a go. So looking forward to meeting new friends and sharing the passion.

About Me

My photo
Following a lifetime spent in teaching, I'm now enjoying the luxury of having time to indulge in a wonderful hobby. I also now have time to visit my son, his wife and baby in US. Time too, for seeing my other son frequently. Keith, my husband is often drystone walling and climbing...so a girl's got to find something to do. Great news, awaiting the birth of twin grand-daughters in early October 2011...more quilts needed! Ireally welcome welcome your comments and interest in my blog. Thank you. P.S. I'm the one on the right!

Here we go again!

Today I am going to start planning and designing a new quilt. This is for Emma, my great neice. She is 5 and has told me she'd like one with dragons! So I've been on a dragon hunt and I've come up with some quite nice friendly dragons which I think will do the trick. What do you think?

Dragon 2
Dragon 1

Dragon 5
Dragon 3

Dragon 4


They look a friendly lot. I've started designing the quit layout and as I go on I'll choose my favourite dragons....or they might all end up featuring!

I have just seen your dragon quilt blog. I don't know if you are interested but I have a blog on a dragon quilt that might give you some ideas as it has links to a site with dragon quilt patterns.
