If it's your first time here, hi, I'm Wendy. I live in Wellington, New Zealand with my husband and two sons. I love to use bright colours in my quilting. Here's a few of the things I'm currently working on:
a bit of dressmaking |
my la passacaglia |
This is half of my la passacaglia quilt. It's all English Paper Pieced, so it's taken all year to get this far. I'm one of the administrators of the the Millefiori / la passacaglia facebook group. If you're thinking about making one of these quilts it's a great group to join for help and advice.
my vintage caravan sewing machine cover |
My favourite finish of 2015 - Home and Away - wool felt applique done by hand |

I don't watch much t.v. but I do like Downton Abbey and also The Great British Bake Off. They have been showing clips of the Christmas day special of Downton and it looks like it will be needing lots of hankies to get through it. Thank you for a great giveaway. x
ReplyDeleteSherlock is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteSherlock is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite TV program has been Madame Secretary. I think it's well played and the plots are contemporary.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the opportunity to win such pretty fabrics. I also like to use bright colors in my quilting. Now that I think about that, maybe the predominately dark fabrics I'm using in a denim & homespun rag quilt are what's bothering me with the project I'm making now!!!
Thank you so much for the giveaway. I absolutely love House of Cards, which is great for binge watching.
ReplyDeleteI like Big Bang Theory. Thanks for participating in the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI follow with Bloglovin and am very happy to have found another blog that loves EPP. x

ReplyDeleteI don't have TV service but love catching up on bones and criminal minds on Netflix. Thanks for the entry! E_goblue@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteI love to watch The Biggest Loser and I loved watching The Martian movie. janice lashley@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI follow you on Instagram and on your blogspot. I love everything you make and post on Instagram and I especially love that you sew things using the bright colors because I also sew primarily with bright saturated fabrics. My mom taught me to sew at 6 years old. She would let me pick out my own fabrics when I was about 12 years old and I would make my own clothes using really bright colors despite her not liking bright fabrics. I loved wearing those clothes--they made me feel wonderful! janicelashley@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI tend to like the British series (Downton, Call the Midwife, Vera, Doctor Who, Coronation Street, EastEnders). Gee, you would think I live in the UK wouldn't you.
ReplyDeleteThese year was the Martian and Snoopy,Inside out ,Hotel Transylvania...as you see mostly cartoons but I do love to watch them and fortunate that I could enjoy them with my daughter.Amazing giveaway,thank you for the chance to win it.
ReplyDeleteHELLO,love the Red Giveaway!
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen any great movies lately! Watch mostly Documentary's+the NBA on tv. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU! msstitcher1214@gmail.com
Fargo is SOOOO good this year!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big TV or movie fan but I do like some of the shows on USA network. "Suits" is a good one. And I liked "White Collar" but I think it has ended.
ReplyDeleteThanks for such a fun giveaway! My all time favorite series is Star Trek: TOS & Voyager but new to this year is Code: Black.
ReplyDeleteAlready following on Bloglovin' @TrekkieChick29
ReplyDeleteI love Dr who, sherlock and NCIS
ReplyDeleteI clicked to follow on bloglovin. Will be fun to see your updates. Thanks for the chance. These would be perfect for a project I'm planning for my DIL.
ReplyDeleteWe watch a lot of TV, but maybe that will change as I now have good lighting and a sewing room! Our most recent binge-watching was: Last Tango in Halifax and the Man on the High Castle. The first I thought was going to be a light hearted story. It still has some of that, but there is a lot of drama in it too now. The Man on the High Castle is a scary alternative university story. Done well though. Thanks for the chance to win these beautiful red and cream fabrics.
ReplyDeleteWe got hooked on The Newsroom (watching through Amazon). And I'm working my way through The Good Wife.
ReplyDeleteMy boyfriend and I don't really watch a lot of TV. He does watch the news. I just fell in love with your Christmas fabric.Anything to do with deer and I am instantly in love with it. Thank you for being a part of the Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day. Happy Holidays to you.
