Best of 2020

Cheryl over at Meadow Mist designs is hosting her annual blog link party where we can showcase what we consider to be our "best 5 blog posts in 2020".    It was fun going back through the year and seeing what was posted and achieved.   I did not undertake any big quilts but stayed with mainly smaller items and did try out two new techniques to me.    The first being  my version of a fabric collage which had been on the "to do list" for over 12 months.   

The next technique was to try and make a small landscape quilt.    

I was given a bundle of  batik fabrics and turned them into a tablerunner using the pineapple blossom block.   


My next favourite was a couple of mini quilts to add to my collection. 
  

And last on the list was a double oven mitt.   I did end up making 3 of them.  


Don't forget to go over here to  see lots of "eye candy" and maybe even pick up an idea or three for future sewing projects.  

Back soon and in the meantime

Happy sewing all

    What fun projects! The shoe just really makes me smile, and since I love making landscape quilts, I was really attracted to yours. They are such a neat way to commemorate vacations or favorite places. Have a healthy new year!
