Check out my other posts to see how it has evolved!

Shopping is dangerous!
Seriously... going to a shop that sells fabric (even if it is relatively small) tests my control! I just went to buy some more thread for my quilt and I found such lovely things! I wanted lots more than those I actually bought but I will have to content myself with these!
I am pretty in love with these two fabrics though:
Planets fabric

Planets fabric
and Seaside fabric:
I bought the seaside one since Im moving to Swansea for my masters and it's next to the sea. So that may have to be my Swansea Cushion :)
The planets.... well I just fell in love with and had to buy! Its absolutely gorgeous!

It's getting there!
Well... my quilt is coming along!!
I've been spending quite a bit of time recently sewing the columns together... averaging 4 a day (bear in mind that I went away for a week!)
Here are the past couple of photos from the first 1/6th and the first 1/3 :D
Im loving it and I now have a room for the coming year to put it in!! WOOOOOO
Oh and this new house that I have, it has a window seat in the living room... I can see it becoming covered in lots and LOTS of cushions and throws :D
I'll keep going and will keep posting up here. Keep telling lots of your friends about this blog, cause everyone needs to know about it :D
Oh... any more guesses as to what it is yet??

My first 1/12!
Well, I promised to upload a picture of my next project, or at least the start of my next!
It's going to take me 1104 (or some number near that) squares to make but i'm determined to get it done by the time I leave for uni yet again.
I made my first quilt before my first uni experience and it seems im continuing the tradition :)
So here is the first 12th!
I know it doesn't look much or give away what it is yet, but I think once i've made the next 4 rows it'll be a bit easier to tell :D Yes... im doing it by rows... yes i know i'm insane and that its going quite wrong with the lengths BUT im going to do it and it WILL look how I want it!!
Oh... and to give you a clue... the colours are a give-a-way :)
