Moondance Rose

November 13, 2009 By Spoonful of Sugar - 43 Comments

Thanks for all the wonderful Birthday wishes for my Mum!  Anyone who knows my Mum, knows she loves everything to do with roses. At one stage she even had more than 50 varieties of roses growing in her garden. When I saw the Moondance fabric by Robyn Pandolph a few years ago I knew it would be perfect for Mum.

The quilt is a queen size and is my own design. Mum was thrilled with it!! I made a carry bag for it with some of the left over fabric but forgot to photograph it.

    Beautiful! When I met my husband he had a yard filled with gorgeous roses. He provided roses for the flower arrangements for my bridal shower. My grandmother had the most amazing rose garden too.

    I loved reading about roses! I lived in the Middle East and had over 100 rose trees in my garden. I have not been very lucky with rose trees in plant pots on my deck … tried a few and it was frustrating .. I gave them to a friend who planted them in her garden. Guess rose trees do not like plant pots!
    The quilt is gorgeous!

Sharing a closer look at the Handy Drawstring Pouc Sharing a closer look at the Handy Drawstring Pouch today — a sweet little project that’s as practical as it is pretty. I stitched this one in the blue and gold colourway of the Tilda Songbird collection and love how the soft watercolour florals shine in a small make. The pouch features cleverly shaped panels (with no boxed corners), stands tall when in use, and folds completely flat for storage. It’s also reversible, which makes it such a fun and versatile sew.   These little pouches are perfect for organising your sewing room, gifting to a friend, or popping into a project bag.The pattern includes three sizes, and you can find it in both my Pattern Store and Etsy shop. Comment HANDY and I’ll send the link straight to your inbox.A big thank you to @tilda_australia for gifting the beautiful fabric.#tildasongbird #drawstringbagpattern #aspoonfulofsugardesigns #tildafabrics #sewingproject
