Over the summer between picnics and day trips I managed to squeeze in a little sewing.
Travel: we celebrated my Mum's birthday in Paris, and the bon voyage passport cover was for her. The family organiser worked a treat, I had tickets, passports and info all neatly tucked inside.
Friends: the needlebook I made for the LMQG / Vancouver MQG christmas needlebook swap. A wonky house and tree for Amy's wonky Village, which I am in love with!
Quilts: Fabrics and prints I'm using in a quilt each for the girls. They both used fabric pens and drew on fabric which will be included in their quilt. Little Missy drew her favourites - rainbow, bunnies, butterflies and sunshine. She kindly shared our ages too, I like hers, 6 (almost) but actually 5. I imagine this will be a wonderful reminder of being 5 when we look back in years to come.
I'm busy working on a new website and some new fabric designs at the moment. It's high time I took myself seriously and believed in myself a little more, it's very exciting to be working again though! I will be sharing some tutorials very soon, I have so many ideas, time to get on with them!
