My Mum

My Mum, my best friend, supporter, teacher, confidant, other part of the parenting team, expert sewer, fabric shopping buddy, and many other things to me, passed away on the 15th of October.
I love her so much. She will be sorely missed

I am posting this, so that all of you out there reading will get this message.

Treasure your loved ones

No one knows who long we have on this on this earth. So treasure every day. Tell people you love them, let them know. I told my Mum all the time. I enjoyed her company, and she knew that. I just wish we had her for more time.

Gifts

There have been quite a few precious children having birthdays lately. So I have been busy making gifts.

This WIP, is one of three overdue presents for my nephew's and niece.

A pencil roll for a special 8 year old.

A pencil roll for a gorgeous 6 year old.

Best get to work and finish some of these gifts. I'm sure there are more birthdays coming up fast.

Saturday Night WIP

After seeing Dresden Plate quilts and patterns all over blog land for a while now, I have been wanting to make one, or two. So I purchased a template, and finally made one tonight.
I think its not to bad for a first attempt. Terrible center applique, but we wont look at that will we. I will most likely unpick the center and try again. For now I'm just happy I made one.
