Well, this is it.
I am very pleased with the finished product, and my first IFQ project and it does represent what HOME means to me. Sun, Surf, Sand, (is my lifestyle) and the Opera House, Harbour Bridge, is my country and the Frangipani flowers that fall from my tree outside my sewing room. My other half has also just made me a lei of flowers from them. Definately a S.N.A.G. I love it
I hope you all like it. |

our little brick house, full of homely clutter, and the front garden, complete with two 'angel cats' - pickles, the big tabby on the doorstep, and the reverend mr. black, washing himself with a pink tongue that was the size of a facecloth... |

This was starting to applique the shapes together, on my Pfaff Creative, I recently purchased. I love my machine!
This has all been pieced by machine.

This one was starting to play around with shapes. I love my country, like anyone else so the forms I have choosen represent the Opera House, Sydney Harbour with the Bridge in view. The beach is a big draw card down here as most of us live there.

This was the start. I have used a free pattern from the net and have changed quite a bit. This represents my home and my love of these items that you will see on the finished quilt.This first one was cutting out.

reading all the posts in the forum helped me come up with the idea that my home is an oasis of calm, a place where i can create order from chaos. |

This is a somewhat "not to scale" version of the top row of my design. It is supposed to be 4 12" square blocks, so this upload image is a little distorted, but should give an idea of what I HOPE to accomplish. |
