A quick snap of Stuart's quilt.
I finished the top last weekend and finally got it sandwiched today, the weather was fantastic and the trampoline is a great surface to baste on, very happy with that family Christmas present.
I have quilted in the ditch to hold it together and I am now quilting little pointy rows in the green, using a veregated thread it looks great so far, it adds dimention to the green and makes it stand out more, but I might also do in the black and white blocks too. We'll see, time permitting.
It's gotten cold here in my sewing room so I have spread my sewing wings and set a trestle table up next to the dining table, moved my sewing machine and doubled my sewing space! I am loving the heater and close access to the kettle, the afternoon sun is fantastic and I get to watch TV with the kids; win win!

The green with the black and white is very striking! Looks great Adds!
The quilt looks terrific and I can see it is much appreciated and loved and should be very handy for the entire family!! Cherrie
Great quilt Adds - you know green/black/white is one of my all-time fave combos! I see you're not the only one appreciating the nice warm, sunny spot you've created!
Had to delete because I can't spell. Love the colour combo Adds it's great. My word verification was explog - which is now my new word for exploring blogs.
The quilt is great and I love the matching cat! Show us a close up of the quilting when you finish.
This is fabulous! The colour combination is fantastic. I also love your flower cushions. have out that idea on the school holiday list!
I have to agree with AJ, this green really pops in amongst the black and white.
