Here is a close up of the blocks put together, just need to get my act together to finish the top off now so I can have it quilted by Oct for mum's birthday.
The is the quilt with the side borders in place, it just needs the top and bottom borders added and the bigger 2nd border and them it will be ready to sammy together and quilt.

Here is a'block' made strip sewing the jelly roll and then cutting into the blocks.


Here are the fabrics to start my post and rail jelly roll quilt.

The show my daugher was in was great. The school put on the musical Grease.
Well I know its had to see her, but trying to take pics from some rows back when my daughter is standing in the dark area is a little hard
She is the one just about the lady's head in the pale yellow.
I hope to get some better pics of her later dressed in her costumes.

Here are the colours I am doing my true lovers knot in. All the fabrics shown have been won playing bingo on #quiltchat. So far I have only cut the reds out, the blues are next to be done.
Will post more pics when I have the blocks a little father along.

Here is the rock and roll skirt I had to make for Hannah. She drew the soda glass and I placed it onto the skirt just like on a quilt. :)
She is such a lucky girl to have a mummy that can sew.



Well the top has had more beads added to it now but I have had to put it on hold for a little while.
Hannah had something which needed to be made ahead of the ball dress, which is a rock and roll skirt for a school show she is taking part in.
