QUILT REVISITED!

You might remember this ...........it has been sitting in the bag in the corner of the sunroom for some months now...........it's E10's birthday next week and I am hoping to have the project completed in time. Typical me, I always end up working best under pressure!!

(the photos aren't great quality, I forgot the camera settings had been changed for some TradeMe pics)

I had a little helper while she was waiting to go to bed. She was dressed in her new 'zoot' suit (as we call it, otherwise known as a sleep suit). I can now report that she has taken it off in bed tonight and has resorted to her blankie, which invariably comes off in the night and then comes the all too familiar "Mummy, Muuuuuuuuuummy.........." Looks like it will happen again tonight!

Have lots of other holiday pics to write about, it will have to wait until after the finishing is done.

ooo rosie, that is looking so lovely!!

i totally know what you mean about pressure and the "eleventh hour"... D18 has this saying that's been a giggle for the last two years:
If it wasn't for the last minute, nothing would happen or something like that.
i find my best muse at the last minute too X

If yours didn't look so finished I'd suggest a binding party!
Looking great.

Good to see that old machine which we both were given when we left home, still in use!! Keep up the great work. Any ideas for E's b'day for me?? Won't be sewing I am afraid! Love E.x
