Welcome to the Savvy Sister's Blogg

Wendy (my sister) and I had this idea to create an on-line community for like-minded women (both young and old) who wanted to share knowledge, skills, ideas. Generally supporting each other in the same way neigbours would support each other in the days when you knew who lived next door or down the road!

Day by day we are building on this idea - our blog will track our journey and you are welcome to join us.

Melissa's Quilt

My daughter, Melissa, loves anything produced by Cath Kitson - she is always raving about bags, purses, curtains etc. so I decided to make her a Jill Nutton version of a Cath Kitson quilt  and I have finally finished it. 

I loved making it - basically it consists of a 1.5 metres each of 3 complimentary fabrics, a cheap pink fleece for the back and about 70 odd pink buttons.  The longest part was sewing on the buttons - the rest was just plain sewing squares and rectangles together.

 Here is the quilt ably modelled by husband, Bob. 
A closer look - the colours are much better in this photo
