Golly it’s been awhile since I’ve been here… the house has been/still is kinda flu ridden, a work trip to London has left me exhausted and sloooooooow in catching up on sewing!
But………… have you seen Quiet Play’s new BOM?
It’s running for nine months with a free pattern released each pattern (if you miss the month you can buy it). January’s pattern is the flamingo and it did not take me long to stitch it up at all (by the 3rd!)……….
The eye was a little tricky but so so worth it! Can’t wait for the next one to be available 🙂
Anyone else tempted to join in?

P.S- if you’re a fan of Outlander (either the books or the series) see here for a general crafty swap that’s happening… More on that soon…

/ January 27, 2015Thanks! Ah its an abbreviation for block of the month 🙂 Almost finished the embroidery one I started
Beth
/ January 27, 2015Aha! That’s a nice idea. You can tell I’m not a quilter… I think it’s a good idea for me to watch on the sidelines before I dive in! Your embroidery is going to be beautiful.

/ January 27, 2015Hopefully 🙂 ah yes it’s probably best not to start with these as its foundation pieced. Once you start patchwork it’s addictive 🙂 Do your girls have dolls? As a mini doll quilt be an ideal practice piece for when you fancy trying.
