spring to finish
Jacquie has been having a spring to finish so ta-da - I hereby present some finished items.
lovely ripplyness, rippled whilst we were away, and now finished to make this cute cushion.
which is much fought over........... I feel another one might be needed, or two.........
and these two were a huge achievement to finish, as a friend rang to say she needed an urgent Christening gift for a friend's baby who was having an urgent Christening service prior to having open heart surgery. and then she rang an hour later to say could she have a gift for the elder sister who was being Christened at the same time. which was in 2 days time....... no pressure there then.......
still not finished is the crazy mom quiltalong, but I have at least pieced the back (determined to stash bust and use what I had, I regretted it after about 4 hours of maths trying to calculate how to make what I had into a use able back, that didn't look like it was thrown together from a scrap bag - which it was.........)
just need to quilt it now. really should order some wadding then........
