Two finishes
I bought some fabric from ebay and amongst it was the fabric with deer at either end of it - only narrow and then the deer repeat - random.... what it is supposed to be used for? I have made a table runner and quilted round the butterflies and am thinking of doing another one and quilting flowers all over.

Barbie pink chair
My sewing room chair is a cheap and cheerful plastic one from Ikea - it is very comfortable to sit on but, being plastic, can be cold. I have had a cushion on it for that reason for ever but the other day decided it was cold on my back (I must be getting old).
I have made myself a small quilt that drapes over the back of the chair and tucks into the hole by the base. Used up some orphan blocks.

Peg bag and basket
The rush is on to get the completed count higher in 2021..... This is a peg bag (left) and a small gift basket (right). Both were easy to make.
At the last Rocheberie meeting, a lady "showed and telled" the peg basket and, randomly, when I got home something turned up on facebook which led me to the website selling the pattern...... Technology definitely listens in - and we haven't even got an Alexa.

Graffiti Quilting
As this is a big birthday year for me I treated myself to an online class. I can't remember how much it was because I paid for it at the beginning of the year when I got an early bird discount. There is one more class to go but this was my homework from the last class.
The class is Graffiti Quilting with Karlee Porter and is done online via facebook videos. The class goes out live but because of the time difference it is 9pm here - and goes on for about 2 1/2 to 3 hours.... I have been watching on catch-up on Sunday afternoons.
