I really want to say thank you for such a lovely warm welcome to blogland. Some of you I already knew and now I've found some other great new places to visit. My biggest thanks must go to
Ali for announcing my arrival and being so encouraging. She also taught me how to do that link! Yes Ali it works and I feel so clever. So as a little thank you I am sending a special something over - here is a sneak peek!

That is just one of my current projects. Here is another.

This is an extra little present for our friend Sophia's 7th Birthday. She doesn't know what it is and I said I would give her a clue. Can you guess what it is?
And look what lovely happy colours just arrived in the mail for me.

These are for a few different projects including a granny quilt for me and a
green cardy, also for me. I have been making so much for others it will be nice to keep a few things for myself. And I am dying to get knitting and crocheting now that our weather is cooling down.
The next work in progress is a cot quilt that I am making for a friend's daughter who turns one this month.

I am still deciding how to piece the top together as it isn't big enough with just these blocks. I think it will end up quite scrappy which I really like.
And finally, a much longer term project that is nearly finished.

My baby girl Daphne's cot quilt. Only a little bit of quilting to go and then a label. I am so pleased with it and it looks lovely in her room.
I am hoping that by putting these out there I will be more enthusiastic about completing them. It's worth a try anyway...
