Finished for Auntie Sandra



The family keep telling me that "Auntie Sandra would like a quilt". I asked my mum what colours her bedroom is "no idea". OK then, do you know what sort of thing she likes, "Yes" said my mum "she likes patchwork". Great. I am going to put this in the Lutterworth Piecemakers exhibition in October and try and get Auntie Sandra to take Nan along.....

work


Strange post for a Saturday but this is my office - complete with wall hanging that was a Quilt University Class with Dena Crain (made ages ago but just the right size for the wall space).

Matilda



Next door neighbours had a baby girl earlier in the year and called her Matilda. I won a Hugo dog applique from Janet Clare's website which I originally thought I would sew onto a babygro but then reality set in and I realised I hadn't a clue what size to buy so I should stick with making a quilt.
