The quilt top was made in August last year (inspired by a quilt I'd seen on Susan's blog) and Karen quilted it with clamshells (one of my favourite designs) a couple of weeks ago. I made a few cot quilts with these colours last year.
Last week most of my sewing time was spent making a dress and Panda for ChaCha's first birthday.
The weekend was very busy with the birthday party in Sydney on Saturday and a baby shower yesterday afternoon. I made another set of wardrobe organisers for my great niece due at the end of March - another great-grandchild for Mum.
Earlier in the week I finished adding the borders to Patchwork Swoon - I am really keen to make another one in Bonnie and Camille fabrics.
A parcel was delivered on Friday afternoon - I'd forgotten that I had ordered this Moda selvedge fabric from Sarah so it was a lovely surprise. I love the "Little Ruby" mini charms. The selvedge fabric will be great backing for a quilt in the future.
We have some relatives visiting from Holland and Canada - they're coming for dinner tonight along with some other cousins. Should be a fun night - we have Tim Tam Cheesecake for sweets (not made by me).
