In the craft groove

Had quite the productive day today!!! And what's better is that tomorrow is a public holiday for Queens birthday work won't get in the way of my craft groove (which normally happens after a Sunday afternoon sewing session).

So I finished off Brutus the 2nd

And got a start on the quilt I'm making for a friends new baby (due in a few months). I bought the kit ages ago and have kept putting it off. This afternoon I thought I would just go in and cut and prepare all the material ready to do aver the next week. So I pull everything out and what a delightful surprise it was to discover everything was pre cut!!! A quick squiz of the instructions proved it was a series if straight lines sewing so I thought bigger it why not??? So the top is done. I've also prepped all the binding so just need to cut backing and wadding, quilt and bind! 
Am very excited about how it looks. Can't wait to finish it. Now to think about how to quilt it.

Shall keep you updated
