Peg Bags and a birthday tea

Peg bags:

And, Happy Birthday Daisy-Boo - one year old today!!!

And one for Daisy

She has already seen this as she was leaning on it while I was sewing on the binding...

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)

DeLoa Jones in Devon

Have just spent three days on a course with DeLoa Jones at Ani's Catt's shop in Devon - had a brilliant time. My workbook gradually disintegrated as the patterns got more complicated:

This is some of DeLoa's quilting:

and this is what I have done after coming home:

Bridlington - Jan Hassard

Third time lucky - which means 3 more UFOs to add to my current 6 Jan Hassard UFOs. I am not in any rush..... Day one was Spirals:

Day two was Strips Galore:

and day three was Scintillating Scraps:

and then today I have made a bag for my A3 clipboard as next stop Devon!

Spring cleaning - who needs Spring for that?

Don't tell her, but this is a Christmas present for Scarlett..... I was tidying and found a box of brushed cotton - there was too much for the lid to fit properly. I cut it into 2" squares and just sewed them together without thinking about how it would end up. I backed it with a piece of fleece - I found another large box of that. I quilted it on my domestic using the threads that were nearly finished and emptied two cones. The lid still won't close on the box of brushed cotton.....

Cat bag

A small finish, but still a finish..... Have been busy moving furniture, helping Mark (and Daisy) build new Ikea flat pack furniture, moving more furniture, hoovering where the old furniture was etc etc.
