LIKE MANY OTHERS...

... I decided that this year I was going to USE the fabrics I have in my stash... NOT just look, stroke and put them away!! SO.. how am I doing?

WELL... I have finished my Made-Entirely-By-Hand top...



its not easy to photograph x..

I have some fabric that I am pretty sure will fit for the back xx I just have to find it! lol x

I also started a Block-Of-The-Month...




these are so much fun x

AND remember this layer cake...


Well.. I was asked to make some raffle prizes .. and I like to have little presents ..just in case xx .. and maybe even getting in early for next Christmas !!....



I DID get a bit carried away ...


LOL! NOW I can maybe have a rest!!

Keep smiling

I have loved the pattern for the plus wuilt ever since you showed it, and the colors you chose work so great together. I really want to make one of my own!

What are you planning for the quilt? And you'll certainly be ready for anything with all those envelopes in your drawer.

I love your hand made quilt, the border reminds me of a backgammon board but it must have taken ages to sew...brilliant.
