    wow you lot have been busy! Pootle Im so proud of you for daring to step out of your comfort zone and make such a fabulous cushion! Well done you!
    Love the bags and must do one for myself but am happy to do a bit of hand stitching for now! Miss Pixie I love the wrapping paper - truely delicious as are the homemade bits n bobs - youre very neat!
    Quilt was finished at about 11.30 last night - by which time could hardly see the stitches, had v sore finger and decided to make myself a scrappy heaxgon throw! Will phot the quilt later but its drying at the mo so not the same col iykwim! Can now understand why it took so long as its massive!! Im really chuffed with it though! I was initally going to quilt more of the top but felt that just doing the larger squares was right and doing more would spoil it...Next two projects on the go! Im going to make stencils to do a trational paper pieced hexagon throw and then will do a quilt for my goddaughter out of the jelly roll I got last year....have already started with a simple 6" square with small block in the middle..
    Her sisters may well be a more complex pattern like this;

    which, in my mind, is beautiful!
    Hope you all have a lovely sunday!
