I have been working on a surprise gift which I will show once it's complete as the recipient doesn't visit my blog but I can show that I have been slowly adding to my mini hearts collection.
This is a pic from a few weeks ago they have doubled since this pic was taken quite nicely.
These little lovelies are from my scrap stash. They are so cute.
On Monday I had a day to myself and decided that I would piece a backing from my blue stash. It's rough looking in this picture but you get the idea. I was in a hurry to start basting so it was a quick pic.
the backing is for this basket quilt which has been waiting for awhile.
It will be hand quilted as it's not that big and should be manageable.
happy days
marina

ReplyDeleteFor some reason my comments are not showing up in my email. But, I wanted to thank you for commenting on my blog post about Mary Brown in Wonderland. I got busy on the first block yesterday. I think it is going to be harder to use the Alice in Wonderland fabric than I thought. Time will tell.
ReplyDeleteSweet - both of them.
ReplyDeleteHello Marina, hope alls well. Long time since you posted
