Hi everyone,

I enjoyed stitching along with you.  I was able to finish a baby quilt. I needed to join the binding, trim, and hand sew it down. 


I finished the quilt in the middle. It has the cutest binding that looks like candy sprinkles.

                                                                                 

The quilts on either side have been finished for a few months now.  I just had to wash them so
I could see their quilty goodness before I send them to their new home.


There is a nice breeze today, great for washing quilts, not so great for taking pictures.


This is when I gave up and brought them inside haha.  These 3 little quilts will be sent off in the post to Cheryll in the next day or two. 


I needed another quilt to make the washer full, so the Pips are all nice and fresh now too. 

If you are following the celery story, today is day 21. Still doing well!  I didn't eat any yet after all.

  7. Hi Debbie! I think your quilts are just darling! I've never made a quilt myself but I'd really like to give it try one of these days. All those perfect straight lines sort of make me nervous! Mine would probably turn out all willy wobbly. I love your fabric choices, they're all so sweet! :)

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words. You should give it a try. Nothing has to be perfect either and I and I am sure many other people would be happy to help you with any questions. My first suggestion: pick a small project first, like a baby quilt or table runner. Give it a go, and if you need help, just ask! xx debbie

    1. Thank you Melanie. The celery is just sitting in shallow water. I was surprised it grew at all as it was headed for the compost bin...I had the same good luck with spring onion cuttings too. xx debbie
