I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.

Another Tick on the To-Do List
I've finally finished Marilyn's 60th birthday quilt - a bit late, but at least I haven't seen her since her birthday in June so I don't feel to bad. We're meeting up, with Lainey and Lisa, for lunch on on Thursday so I had to have it finished by then. I have learned that hand sewing a border on a fleece lined quilt when it's 25 degrees isn't a great idea!
My mother taught me that orange, red and pinks and purples don't go, but I think this quilt shows that rules are made to be broken!
I love it, and I hope Marilyn does too!
