small projects+BIG quilt


I have been away to Sydney for a bit so am well behind with my big zig zag quilt.
By doing 2 rows each session I am slowly getting there .
I think I am almost half way.

My eldest daughter is having a birthday , she is living far away from us in London so I am compelled to make her some more homemade "crap" for her birthday
This time some Liberty boxer shorts .



They appear to be ginormous so I am hoping they don't fall to the floor when she puts them on !!
Cute handmade buttons and a contasting pocket.





My blue star quilt is ready to be picked up from the quilter so I have been experimenting with some Rural Jardine charm squares to make some cushions for a complete bed makeover.
I am a blue freak to be sure !!

I love blue too! I'm going to make a rural jardin quilt for my best friend's mum for christmas. I can't decide on fabrics though - shall I go for a mix of the whole collection, or pick out my faves? It's a toughy!

ps - wish my mum would make me a load of homemade crap ;)
