Mosaics


In our local library I picked up a short course brochure and in it was a mosaics course. Mosaics is something I have wanted to try for a few years so I enrolled.
Have you ever had an idea of how something will be, then when you actually do it, it is completely different? After the first week I was thinking this just wasn't for me, however I thought stick it out (actually that was a financial decision more - I paid for it I was doing it!) Anyway last night was good, I think I can actually see that I might enjoy this mosaics stuff after all. Just goes to show, don't give up.

SORT OF FLAUNT


No Friday Flaunt....not this week but do read on I have a "sort of flaunt" I have included a link to another blog I put together.

http://booksareus-helen.blogspot.com/
Easier still look to the right side, "My blog list" and click on Helen's Blog.

I created this blog basically as a work requirement to do the now well known Library 2.0 or 23 things. As I progressed through the 23 things I was also working on a Double Wedding Ring quilt and my blog and the quilt grew together. Finally at the
23rd thing the blog and the quilt were completed! I have since added a post to the blog.
So I can hear you asking why didn't I just continue using the above blog address. A simple answer really, I changed jobs and as such the email address I had registered was no longer valid.

Friday Flaunt!


What is a Friday flaunt.......well each Friday, bloggers who belong to Quilting Down Under chat group post a flaunt of their productivity. Visit Cinzia's blog to find links to all the bloggers - http://lgfns.blogspot.com/
Anyway I have finally found an easier way to download photos from camera to computer so now I can participate too.

My first Friday Flaunt is my first Jelly Roll Quilt. It was so easy to make, I love it when you are sewing points and they actually join point to point.
