Long time no see!

Woah, I've been so busy with non-crafty things that I've had no time to blog. It's annoying how work gets in the way of things! So, what have I been up to? I finally finished the summer baby quilt, hurrah! I'm going to the baby shower soon so I can give it to the mama then (along with some little Geordie burp cloths, howay the lads and lasses!).

I've also finished the two quilts for Iris and Hazel - as you can see below. I posted a photo of them in the Making Magazine competition on their Facebook page and won a signed Kaffe Fassett book, yay!

I've made a biiiig head start on the quilt for my mum...











And started a new quilt too! I bought a squared notebook and oh-my-gosh it makes designing patterns sooo much easier.
Happy days, eh!

Binding

I've bought the fabric (£6/m) to do the binding on Iris and Hazel's quilts - I thought it would be nice if they had the same. I'm doing it nice and thick - 3.5" wide (as wide as I could go with the metre of fabric I had already bought). If only I could find where I've put my wadding!

I saw both girls last Saturday. They're absolute cuties!
