OPAM, 12 UFO's in 2014

I have finished my July UFO for 12 UFO's in 2014. This is my Wine table runner. I've decided to give it to my sister for her birthday. Thank you to Marti for hosting. You can check out the July finishes over here.

I have 5  finishes for OPAM this month :  Table Runner (above)

3 Xmas in July gifts

1 Xmas ornament

Thanks to Peg and Kris for hosting OPAM again this month.
I did one more finish this month, my mini quilt swap, but haven't shown a photo as yet because my recipient, O'faigh has been unable to open it as yet, so will wait until she does to post a picture.
Happy Stitching until next time...........

OPAM finish, 12 UFO's in 2014, other bits and pieces.

This is my finish for 1 Xmas Item a Month. I have already blogged about it on the blog set up by Narelle from Pins and Whiskers but needed to add it to here for OPAM.

Christmas Treats table runner. Below is photo of how I quilted it. 

I also need to show my Table runner as I forgot to say in my last post that this is my May finish for 12 UFOs in 2014 hosted by Marti. The parade of finishes will be on Marti's blog at the end of the month if you wish to check it out. Just click on the logo on my side-bar to go to the blog. Thanks to Marti for hosting and encouraging me to get a few of my UFOs completed.

I have also been working on a couple of other things.
My Sunday Stitchers blog group are working on Gossip in My Garden by Anni Downs. I am playing catch up but here is the block I am working on at the moment.

I am using Nancy Halvorsen fabrics and some other background fabrics that I have had in my stash for a number of years. Am pleased with how they are looking so far.

I have also joined the Fat Quarter Shop's Wishes Quilt Along. This is the first block. Have a few more blocks to make to catch up with this one as well.  I bought the fabric kit from the FQS and a new free block is put on their blog each month for you to download. You can make a donation to the Make a Wish foundation and the FQS will equal the amount donated to help this wonderful cause.
On Friday, 8 of the ladies from my quilting group are going on a bus trip with the Beenleigh Quilters to The Bribie Island Quilters Show. Looking forward to this outing.  
Well that's all from me today, must get out to my room now and get some preparation done for Chookyblue's Sewing weekend. If you wish to join in and stitch along to help Chooky celebrate The Chookshed's 2nd birthday, go over to here, read about it and add your comment to her post.
Till next time..............Happy Stitching..........

OPAM ,12 UFO's in 2014 finish, Tamborine Retreat Show and Tell

Here is another finish to include in my OPAM tally. The twister table runner I've made for my son Scott makes a total of 4 finishes for this month. I finally got it quilted and the label attached.

This is also my March finish for 12 UFO's in 2014 run by Marti at Aunt Marti's 52 Quilts. 
Below are some batiks I bought from the fabric man who came along on Sunday to our retreat. Am going to make a hexagon quilt for my daughter from these. Need to find a few more purples to go with them before I do though.

I will close with a couple of quilts from our show and tell on Monday night.

Aren't these gorgeous, just had to show a photo of them.

You can see by the above photos the hexie theme of the camp was well represented.
Well must go, see you next time..........
