Hi friends! My first post on this - Sublime Stitchery's new website! I'm excited to gently move forward with how Sublime Stitchery will look and what I will have on offer.
We are part way through a pretty tough 2020, so I thought I'd do a bit of an update on what I've been up to, with some pretty pictures to help ease the 2020 pain. I've been working on a variety of projects, for other and myself including Block of the Month Quilts, Mini Quilts, Zipper Pouches, Rope bowls, fabric covered Magnetic Book Marks, Tote's and Purses! Phew! That sounds exhausting! But I've absolutely loved trying new techniques, new types of fabrics and really honing my skills.

First up, this pretty stack of quilt tops finally got quilted. I had planned to quilt them myself, but you know, I have other things to do! The quilts above include (from top to bottom) pattern testing Garland Quilt for Megan Collins, Meadowland Quilt by Then Came June, Summer Sampler 2018 by Lee Heinrich and Carolina Mingle Quilt by Southern Charm Quilts. These are all yet to be completely finished with binding. I guess binding is not my favourite part of the quilt making process.
I've really enjoyed making Zipper Pouches recently! Some of these might still be for sale in the Shop, check it out here!
During Lockdown I took part in a Sew A Long (SAL) hosted by Giucy Giuce and Alison Glass. It was intense! The tiny piecing didn't get the better of me though. To finish the SAL and receive the Finishers Pin we had to incorporate the blocks into a finished project. Below is the double zipper pouch I made using all Alison Glass fabrics, and I'm pretty pleased with it! You can see more photos on my Instagram page here.
