TO-DAY I AM.....

... going to show you the FRONT of work I have been sewing xx lol xx Will make a change from the last post xx

I have made my postcard for the February partner in the Congleton Quilt Group swap ...


I KNEW I didn't want to do this swap!! lol x the technique for February is foundation .. now don't get me wrong I like it ... but for postcards you are talking MINI.. and I don't like that! Won't be doing that pattern again xx

I also made my Australian-Christmas-Block-swap block...


my partner for this month likes purples and silver but said she did not mind other colours x.. don't have purple but DO have blue and silver ... close! So that is what I went with x 

I also am making a quilt for the appeal put out by Alison at Little Island blog spot ...the link I had wont work!  I have the top made and now am ready to quilt it x


Lots of scraps used .. and also I found some fleece for the back as Alison says Mexico City gets COLD at night x

Weather wet, windy, cold and grey .. so back to sewing I go xx

Wow, you have been busy! Your little postcard is adorable, even if it wasn't your favourite technique.

Love the quilt you have done for the kids in Mexico- I must pull my finger out and make something!

The quilt for Mexico is beautiful.

The postcard looks great although I don't think I'd fancy foundation piecing that small.
