My first finished project of the year - and it is very late!
I have to admit that I wasn't too inspired to make a Winter quilt given that we have had several days of 40deg but I had a few ideas.
And with school holidays, working on my Mum's quilt and preparing for the return to school and my new brilliant job, I mucked around with it for ages.
Still, it is done and winging its way to a distant secret destination - I hope my partner likes it!
Now I just have to finish all the other projects!!
