This week a little bit of creativity...
A little bit of finishing off... A little bit of catching up......
These two little applique pieces from ''Hatched and Patched'' were so quick and easy... they could be a little table mat or an afternoon tea mat with a special friend or a wall hanging for a nursery but they are very sweet...
Now this one I started awhile ago... I found it in a craft magazine but for the life of me can not remember which one... each block is framed with a dark green and the border is a mustard print...
Here are 15 more baskets... but I need to do about 20 more to be caught up... which isn't going to happen this week as I am off to Perth for a few days... number 1 daughter graduates from Uni on Thursday after 5 years of studying Law and Politics.... WOOHOO.... well done girl...
These redwork angel blocks were done by a few girls around Aussie, Canada and USA... it is a swap... BUT... one of my friends who was also in this swap and lives very close to me... we decided to put our swap blocks together and make a quilt for a local girl who is battling cancer... the news isn't good for her... my friend and I thought it would be nice for her to know that there are others thinking of her and wishing for the best that can be... and what better than to have angles wrapped around you...
While in Perth I will get some more red fabric for the border and some backing fabric... then butt in chair and madly sew to have it quilted and to her as soon as possible... Once finished I will post another photo...
Luv T xxxx
