1) Brit Quilt Swap 3 - I have received my partner details and I have began my stalking.....I already have a few ideas in mind but need to check out a few more things before I let you in on any of them.
2) I've just won a fabric giveaway - 5 African print FQs from here. I have no idea what I will make with them yet but I'm looking forward to getting my mitts on them. They remind me so much of some art work that I did at school (years ago) and a muliticultural arts education project with my school a few years back.
But the best news this week is that our friends had a baby girl! Yay!! One girly baby quilt coming their way (even though said baby has appeared 4 weeks early weighing in at 4lbs 9oz and has caught me completely off guard in my best laid sewing plans).
This is what I've been up to the past couple of nights:
I've raided my stash and used up some of my Just wing it collection by Momo for Moda. I love this fabric nearly as much as the It's a hoot range that came before it. I had a couple of charm packs and a yard for the front and a pdf of a free Moda pattern, funnily enough called 2 charms plus 1 yard. The back is more from the range and a few of the charms. Really simple but just lovely and according to my eldest 'Beautiful!'. I know that it will be treasured for many years to come. I have a few days to get this one quilted before we go to see the new arrival.....so excited!
