Urban Stitches Part 2

Inspiring and inspiration at its best.

Have you seen this before?

Sew Laugh Love by Leanne Beasley.

It was part of the Urban Stitches Kit last year and has since been released.  

I have liked it but never felt compelled to make it ... until now.

After lunch on Saturday we were treated to some real eye candy during the Show and tell.

The colourings are beautiful. 

Even this picture does not show you the full beauty of this finished project but it has now

 caused me to add this project to my every growing to do list.

Leanne also got out her Mystery Quilt for everyone to see.

It was great to have a talk with her and find out some of the options

that she is currently playing with to finish off this project.

I am looking forward to seeing what option she goes for as they

all sound exciting :o)

It was also great to talk with Leanne about quilting ideas.

Since getting home I have got mine back out.

Inspired to do some more.

I am also looking forward to Leannes next big project in her Vignette Magazine.

It sounds right up my alley as it can be made from scraps.  She also has a smaller BOM

coming in Vignette. I am looking forward to seeing both.

So what is a fun day of socialising and stitching without some

Retail Therapy?

12 FQ's and an extra thread pack as one has to make sure she has enough

 threads to finish off each of the three projects we got on the day.

A couple more books for the collection.

The Christmas one was a parting gift from

Erica at Under the Mulberry Tree

I also purchased the pattern for this cute "Fairy Floss" Angel by

Melly & Me

as well as the pattern for this one by Rosalie

"The Nibbles Family & Carry-all House"

and after seeing this one in "real life" I am going to dig out my pattern 

and make it up for Lily's room (as originally planned)

Only 7 weeks until I get to experience another stitching day

and I am so looking forward to it.
