Sadness, sadness, they call it sadness...

OK, sad in the extreme - what can I say? I have no life..... Had an empty vase so started to fill it AGES ago to see how long it would take to fill but, in my typical fashion, forgot to write down when I started to fill it. Now somebody at Lutterworth is collecting empty spools for a competition at a quilt exhibition so I think I will empty this and start again..... If someone has a use for them, it has to be good....

Extreme close up

Mark has bought a new camera.....

A finish! This is for Summer's first birthday which is this coming weekend. This is a Bonnie Hunter pattern called Storytime Stars but, spot the "deliberate" mistake (I didn't until all the blocks were done). Clue: no stars......

Rocheberie mystery - how many years ago?

This feels like my first finish in ages. This was a Rocheberie mystery day - but I can't remember how long ago - at least a couple of years I think. I had cut out lots more mice to go on it but when I decided it was time to get a move on with it and get it done, I couldn't work out where I had planned to put them, so I left them off.

Fame!

Wow, I've been mentioned on Bonnie Hunter's blog! Nothing very exciting - I forwarded her a link about a free kindle quilting book that had been mentioned as free on BQL. It did mean my name is mentioned on Bonnie's blog though..... Need to go and walk the dogs and calm down!

Kaboodle helps out

Kaboodle has found my pile of wadding......

Wedding present

A wedding present for Rupert and Claire. They must be married by now - went abroad and I am sure Rupert said they were getting married on the 6th. Reception back here is in a couple of weeks' time. The label says "A wedding present for Rupert and Claire, may all your ups and downs be in bed." There is just one small smackeral of a problem with this quilt..... it was a top I made a little while ago and pulled it out of the UFO pile and quilted it. Mark pointed out to me one night, when we crossed paths on the landing - him coming back from the loo and me just going - that the main fabric I had used in the quilt, glows in the dark......
