Addicted already! ;)

Remember this??? Well my first attempt at patchwork became this!


I padded it with quilt batting and attached it to a canvas frame to add some sunshine to the wee one's nursery area...




I'm going patchwork mad!!! Look! I've even quilted my t-shirt! So today, guess what? I'm clacking away again! This time I'm going to make an actual usable quilt... here's what I've done so far! 


...its by no means perfect but I'm loving the whole process of trying something new! Many of the fabrics I've used in projects so far have been donations from friends and family so it makes them even more special to me! ;D

So whats new with you???

rhythm & rhyme



Hey folks! hows it going! First of all a BIG fat 'sorry' for being so quiet of late! I've been mad busy getting ready for the little one and the baby brain has kicked in big time, I've read and reread my 'what to expect when you're expecting' book about five times now! Only 9 weeks left before my due date, so got to get myself educated about these things.....
Anyhow, i just wanted to nip in and show you my latest artwork, rhythm & rhyme - do ya like it??? It will be available for purchase at the launch night tomorrow. I'll be popping my head in to see if there's any interest and do a bit of hobnobbing. Oh and I'll probably have a mild panic attack or two on the way through the door but sure thats totally normal...right??) :P
Its an open party (super chilled and relaxed atmosphere) so if you're in dublin town tomorrow evening i hope you'll drop by. There's tonnes of really good stuff going up on those walls so don't miss out! 

Wish me luck chickens! xoxo Tanya ;)

*** UPDATE ***
Over 7 Grand has been raised so far - how cool is that?? The art sale continue until Thursday 22nd July! Here follows some pics from opening night...  ;D
