Well I have been busy these last few weeks. I have been dabbling in all my UFO's which has been a lot of fun! I had a lovely Mothers Day on Sunday. My mum, dad, brothers and grandparents came to our appartment for lunch. It was a great day and everyone enjoyed themselves!
Now, onto more quilty matters.
First off I have sent the names out to those people participating in the Easter/May Block Swap Molly started all those months back. I hope they all have fun making and receiving their blocks. I can't wait to see the results!My knitted scalf is growing quickly. I think I have about 4 more inches to go and then I'll finish it.

Prada is in the photo inspecting it, and she gives you an idea of its length.
I have been doing some hand quilting also on the 'vintage' style quilt I am making.
I now have 14 Log Cabin blocks! They are so much fun to make. Foundation paper piecing makes it SO much easier! Yes that is a bag of 1" strips, all ready to be made into Log Cabin blocks!
Now, to my 1930's repro addiction! This is a Grandmothers Flower Garden I have been working on for a while. I have used the English Paper Piecing method to make these blocks, which will eventually be joined together with cream hexagons.My fabric stach...The blocks I have made so far...
On Saturday Jamie and I went to my grandparents house for Pop and Jamie to do some woodwork. Nan and I sat outside in the sunshine. Nan read her newspapers and did her crosswords, and I paper pieced 48 hexagons!
Thanks for looking!
