rainy sunday

Rain has fallen for the last 24hrs non stop ... great dumpings of the wet stuff.
So I have only a few pictures to show of my increasing pile of paintbox blocks , as the light is producing such dull shots .
They are such fun to sew .
Each new combination a treat (usually !)
I think the dark green one is a bit dodgy , not enough contrast in value .
I have been perusing the Flickr group & am very envious of all the flat as a pancake blocks.
Mine are a bit wavy .
Try as I might ....they remain so !!!



The colours are very cheerful but my fav so far has to be the 2 grey blocks .



Here are the gifts from the ever so talented bloggers I met in the flesh when in London in January , how interesting & fun it was to meet these girls & their families !!

From Aneela .. such delicate colours & stitchery , a felt applique notebook



Katy's hexagon bag & some Liberty bias binding & sweet Kath Kidson pins





This blog is nearly 1 yr old so in a week or two I plan to have a celebratory post & give-away .

Come back & help me celebrate !!!
