Before I can make further inroads into the textile mountain I have to finish what I started last week, the baby quilt. I braved the temptations of Sew Creative at Wroxham Barns for the wadding and despite my best intentions bought some backing fabric even though I had plenty at home. It was just SO right!
This is always the more fiddly bit of quilt making, where I usually put it away for another day, but now there is a baby waiting! Once the quilt is finished, doing the edging is a nice peaceful hand sewing job in front of the television.
And it’s all finished and ready to wrap.
Quite a performance, I hope it’s worthy of an Oscar…
I do hope Oscar likes it!

Oh, how lovely! Feeling quite broody now!
Don’t worry, I can do bigger ones as well!
A beautiful job , very well done ! Of course , the pretty mugs of something herbal must have helped and I’m sure that flying saucer made a difference ! I feel the same about sugar mice and those knicker-pink shrimp things .
Sugar mice! I remember being appalled a few years ago when I tried to find them at Christmas and someone had BANNED the string tails!!! That’s the tastiest bit!
