the reply
My neighbour posted this funny note this morning (it is creased because he had folded it into a little square envelope)
catching the drool
I made bibs using this tutorial. Actually I made 6 (2 of each print). There's a lot of baby drool.
Here's the adorable culprit, I can't believe she's 3 months old already!
restless night
since my neighbours woke me and Lois up at around 3am this morning I posted this note through their door on the way to school. Thankfully she settled quickly and woke up at 7.30am but I couldn't sleep!
So despite my bleary state, here's some WIPs:
one short side of binding done!
in and out... and the winners!
This block flew in from Sana from Scrappy? Sew Bee It!:
I love it! It is hard to photograph but the background she used has beautiful little feather prints on it!
Thank you Sana!
I sent this block out to Patricia for the Simply Solids Bee:
It is the Winged Square Block. The linen squares she sent me weren't the right size (either she cut them short or I did - I'm not sure!!). So I went with my stash for the three solid blocks - the middle one is Oakshott, it's hard to see but it's really pretty!
On to the winners of my giveaway...
who were:
Congratulations! It would be fabulous if the winners could please email me
Huge thanks to Sara for her generosity and all round awesomeness!
one stitch at a time
I have begun hand sewing the binding on the huge May quilt and as my friend Rachael suggested I'm taking it one stitch at a time... only a million more to go ;)
My awesome giveaway ends tomorrow so make sure you enter
HERE!
Then wing it over to Le Challenge to see my inspiration for this month!
pop flower coasters
I added some more bloom to my living room! I made pop flower coasters using this tutorial.
I'm still a novice at applique (can't you tell?!) but it's all experience and I'm pretty sure those zig zags will still do the job, even if they are not at the edges exactly! I really enjoyed the little bit of hand quilting on each one too.
They work really nicely in my living room with my Retro Flowers quilt!

How's that for random?! These were all taken during the school holidays. I'm suffering from total lack of sleep - if it's not a drooling baby then it was the mad gale blowing outside! crazy weather.
As you may know I'm running a giveaway (open until Tuesday 23rd)
and I realised how fitting it would be for someone to make this one...
