Renata's PhD's

Well its taken me ages to get organised but here i am, thank you for your patience Myra!

Hi all, i recently got back into quilting after a long hiatus! I made two quilts for my children when they were little- they are now very big! So this year i started again and have been slowly working my way into improving my skills without tearing my hair out - well only a little bit of hair pulling!
So when i saw this challenge i thought it would be good fun!

Myra's PHD challenge should get us all on our bums in front of the sewing machine, so i have nominated three projects that are waiting to be finished,

Number one is a quilt i started a while back - and have been looking at it and wondering how to quilt it, the thing is bloody humungous, big enough for a double size bed.


Number two is something i thought would be a challenge, and is still waiting for me to be challenged!



This is yet to be sewn together, there are four stars, and I am scared all the points will be crappy!


Number three is another kit i bought at a craft show- actually i have more but im trying to be realistic!

Still in plastic ! lots of little points hmmmm...


My blog is called wish upon a star and is about my journey with quilting, teenagers and anything that amuses me really!
I am really looking forward to seeing everones work, its very inspiring, so thank you very much Myra !xox

your points are going to be wounderful!!! Don't even stress about it!!! ;-)
And huge quilts are just fun to do!! Being realistic is a good goal - and getting them done will be fantastic!!! Have fun!!! (that is the most important part of the whole project anyways!!!)
