Penny

Sleep tight Penny.  Forever loved.

 

A "doing stuff" day

Penny's Christmas present:

(with Daisy being in on the secret...) A finished bag (was just waiting for the handles)

And, a name badge, in case I ever forget who I am on a workshop (and because I hate it when sticky name labels get caught in my hair)

Why I sometimes struggle with doing binding

Close, but no cigar...

Almost there....

and Penny is currently on her THIRD bandage after needing staples in her leg for a nasty cut - don't know how she did it but it was probably on something sharp in the brook - can't keep that girl out of water....

Two for the price of one

Two Bonnie Hunter patterns: Wonky Wishes blocks with a dancing nine patch setting.

Our kitchen tiling is nearly finished so Mark insisted the photo show some of the tiles. Scarlett had to be in the photo too, and bottom left is Penny's disappearing bum.....

Rainy day

What else can three girls do on a rainy afternoon?

Work in Progress - and another frog

We should have called her Robin as this is her favourite spot to sit....

We're having a heatwave, a tropical heatwave....

Bluebells and snow

Penny's first bluebells and snow in May.....

Like Buses

Nothing for ages then two at once..... Mum wanted some covers for her chairs so I loaded some fabric I had dyed onto NessieJ not long after I first had her and practiced on these rather than endless bits of scrap fabric. Have only just done the binding though...... and while I had the camera out, Penny and Scarlett. Penny is the one on the left with a tennis ball under her bum because it is a Precious Thing and she has to keep it close.

Ahead of myself

These are four blocks for a challenge set by Liz at Patchwork in Pubs. We don't meet again until April so I am way ahead of myself - I will probably forget to take them on the day knowing me....... And, Penny is six months old! She is still not as big as Willow or Scarlett but she is not too far off.....

Three things

Another finished quilt - on a roll.... This is for the huge Alzheimer's project in Scotland next year but I will post it after Christmas when some of the madness has stopped. Quilted on Nessie but I have only just finished the binding.

Progress to show Lynda - I have got a bit further since taking the photo but nothing is ironed or de-dog-eared (Mark always says that sounds cruel).

And finally, this is the result when your cat knocks your box of Ready Brek onto the floor and the puppy gets to it before you do.....

Pantograph present for Penny

My first pantograph quilt. A present for Penny - I knew she wouldn't be fussy about it. She posed lovely for me and was rewarded with a biscuit!

This is my first official finish that was quilted on NessieJ but my 12th for the year so far.

Willow and Penny (size matters)

Name change

Have changed Noodle's name to Penny. I kept shortening it and in six months' time, I didn't want to be in the park shouting for "Nood" (nude)..... So here we have Penny and Scarlett together on the sofa.
