Some Mail

I got a lovely parcel of charm squares yesterday in the mail from my friend Suz of Patchwork and Play . I was lucky enough to win her giveaway the other day. As well I got a great patchwork projects book in the mail from my friend Jude at My Quilt Creations . It was also a win from her giveaway. I love all the cute projects like pot holders and lavender sachets. When I uploaded the fabric pics I found one of Stumpy I took while I was in my sunny room yesterday.

I love the little wren card.

I have been working on the quilt for my mum. I am up to the outer border applique now. I have also been doing my star quilt and working on Sandi's pincushion. The pincushion is pretty fiddly so I have to stop often to rest my eyes a bit. I think it is looking good. There is a country fence and a kangaroo so far.
This morning I downloaded some nice stitchery drawings from Stitch, Stitch, Stitch. They were baby type things but I only downloaded the teapot page and the lady bug page.

Happy Sewing,
Val
