How about a start and TWO finishes? Not bad as well as teaching Sunday School!
A young Teaching Assistant from school is leaving on Friday to become an Au Pair for a family in Europe. I wanted to make a quilt that the staff could all sign using fabric pens, so she could take it with her, but didn't think I'd have time . . . but as you can see, I found time!
I even managed to machine applique her name onto it
I did wavy line quilting in the sashing, and added a red gingham binding (can you guess our school uniform is red?!)
I also manged to finish my Star Of Africa block - the first one for our international Bee. I hope Patti likes it
I have also sent her two scissor tags, and I'll add some chocolate tomorrow before I post it. No danger of it melting this side of the pond, but it's warm in Canada, so hope it gets there OK!
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.
