WOYWW

 
 
Just a quick snap of my table before I start making my next LillyBo quilt.
Top left hand corner - my free machined label made to attach to my quilt.
Top centre - my jar of pearly buttons.
And then a pile of cards that I have finished.
I used lots of little snippets of lace/fabric/vintage embroidery and linen to create tiny collages for these sets of cards.
One set went off to my good friend in Yorkshire as a little birthday gift.
The rest are waiting in my sewing room to show Maxine and then maybe I will pop them in our Sisters Crafty Creations blog shop.
 Here are just a few of them!!.........

Today I have a very busy day planned so may not get round to checking out your desks till later in the week. Join Julia and her gang over at The Stamping Ground.
Hope you are all well and keeping cosy in this chilly weather.
Thanks for calling in - scroll down to my last post if you want more pretty stuff!!

Good morning all!
Tuesday was wild windy snowstorms and sunny spells.
Let's hope Wednesday is a bit better.

To brighten your day here is a pic of my latest quilt and bag.......

 Straightforward patchwork isn't really my thing but I just loved doing the little collages of characters from the printed fabric I used down the sides of the quilt.
I even made a little cat to pop in the pocket but forgot to take a pic.
Maybe Jo will show you when she blogs them on her Lillybo Quilts blog later this week.
We have had fun making them and I think we may still have enough fabric for a couple more.
We are keeping a look out for interesting panels - maybe to suit older children.

My table is fairly tidy.
Can you see my little collage/embroidered cards.
I just fancied doing something different and I have a friend's birthday coming up.

I will show them in greater detail next week.







Lastly, Annie had a new little helper on Monday!
This little sock dolly is just helping clean up before she set off to Jo of Jozarty with the pink quilt I made last week ( scroll down to my Friday post if you want a peep). She quickly zapped round Annie's workdesk with the mini Henry and then jumped in the tote bag ready to go in the parcel of  Lillybo Quilts. I hope she finds a good home with one of the poorly little children in the Liverpool area.





Ok folks - lets pop over to the lovely Julia's desk and see what she has been doing this week.
Have a great week and thanks for popping in to see me and even becoming a follower in some cases ( I notice I have a few new followers so Hi to you!!)
