Last year's Christmas gift to my nephews is coming with me to the West Country quilt show :) #wcqs2016 #easypeasychristmassampler #nelliesniceties
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
I'm getting reacquainted with some old quilts today while preparing for the #westcountryquiltshow #wcqs2016 This #sneakystarsquilt was made for my hubby a few years ago :)#nelliesniceties
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
I'm really hoping for some selfish sewing time before this year is out so that I can turn this stack if awesome into a quilt for me! Anna Maria Horner rocks! #loominousfabrics
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
When you can pull the best part of 250 fat quarters from stash to sell at the West Country Quilt Show and it doesn't even make a dent in the stash you know you have a serious fabric addiction :) #honestcraftroom #nelliesniceties #westcountryquiltshow
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
I made a good start on this #quiltnowbom block, hoping to finish it up today. Hooray for large pieces! #epp #paperpiecingeverywhere #aurifil #nelliesniceties #youcangoyourownwaybom
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
Making a start on my print version of month 3 #quiltnowbom #epp block. I'm really loving this palette right now. #paperpiecingeverywhere #youcangoyourownwaybom
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
Had a bit of a rummage through my WIP pile to find EPP projects to demo at the #westcountryquiltandtextileshow I have way more projects on the go than I remembered, one day I might actually finish some of them. #hexiestartamed #shieldsepp #paperpiecingeve

My print version of #quiltnowbom month 2 machine block. I have to admit I love how these prints look together :) #youcangoyourownwaybom #cottonandsteel #riflepapercofabric #tulapink #amybutler
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
This afternoon I had the longest machine sewing session that I've had in months. Most rewarding if slightly back-breaking. #wonkycrosses #improv
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
I'm happy to report that my shoulders have not complained about the crochet, my hands are not as happy but I can ignore them for now :) I love how this yarn is working up! Great job @houseofalamode #crochet #yarnporn #makersgonnamake
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
It must be Autumn. The #dorisprojectbag is in service again and I've got the crochet hook out. Hoping my shoulders will let me play with yarn this year. I can't wait to get started with this yarn from @houseofalamode :)
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:

Note to self: find some time for selfish sewing in the near future before your sewjo disappears. These #lesfleurs prints are screaming to be used! #cottonandsteel #riflepaperco

Doing a spot of appliqué today :) #secretsewing #lecien #lecienfabrics #aurifil
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
Today looks like this. Hoping quilting my #blackandwhitequiltswap doesn't trigger too many palpitations for the cardiac event monitor to cope with. New book as my reward for getting stuff done amongst the madness of life at the moment. #medicallychallenge
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
Proof of life! The sewing room and I have become strangers due to vertigo, bed rest, poorly child and hand sewing deadlines. This will be ready to post on time partner, have no fear! #blackandwhitequiltswap #bwqs_pandas #cottonandsteel #blackandwhite
Reene@Nellie's Niceties:
The Dresden doughnut is the last block of the current #quiltnowbom Next month I can reveal the finished quilt :) #quiltnow #robertkaufman #emilycier #konasolids
