2020 Wk 15 - playing around and a round up

It's lovely to receive REAL post - it does wonders to stave off the wobbles!  I got two miracle cures this morning - Lisa sent us a crochet rainbow and Plum sent a stitched Easter Card - Even husband was impressed!!!  Thank you both!

The two villages have set up a Safari Park Trail - people are encouraged to put out an animal and facts about it, so kids can look for them on their walks.  Mine:

And next door's

In other news there has been some hand quilting



And some finishing (only one side so far, I'd forgotten what a flaff this method was!)


 
I also have to confess: Following our Resin craft afternoon a few months ago, I *may* have popped some resin craft stuff into my Amazon basket!

I found a collection of postage stamps dating back to I don't know when (but some of the values have half pence on them!!!) so I made these

And then I did some more with some pretty rainbow buttons

I have also (clearly not much else to do at the moment!) made the Hexi flowers for the Facebook swap for April as well as March

 and completed some more FPP blocks 43 made, 90 needed!!!

I have been keeping a UFO spreadsheet (thanks for the idea Amo) to show me what needs doing next.  Unfortunately it's a bit two-steps-forward-one-step-back as I keep finding more projects to add to this list

As if this wasn't bad enough I've just realised the Spotty Circles quilt isn't even on it!!!!

  1. Love the safari idea. Most of our houses are a bit obscured here, I do have rainbows and teddies about though but they’re a challenge to find. I think that’s the nicest way of finishing hexis. I know you’re much more prolific than me, you know more people! I also only have projects that have risen to the surface,not absolutely everything! 😄

  2. That spreadsheet looks incredibly organised Benta, I think I would frighten myself at all the bits of projects I have on the go if I attempted one :) I really like your rainbow button coaster, what a cheerful thing to have on hand with a cuppa!
