A few weeks ago a good friend dropped in and gave me this lovely bag. It has a special pocket inside which includes a pen and notepad. I had forgot to show it off, because I am too busy using it! I think this lovely print (purchased in Africa) helped the revived interest in Zebras at my house! Although I don't think any more poor zebra have been sacrificed to feed the lions...I found the lions drinking milk...from the "milk tanker" out of the Thomas train set!
On Sunday I enjoyed a lovely afternoon sewing with a few friends, one who had recently cleaned out her stash. I have plenty of novelty prints in my stash, but happy to take a few more on board, just to help out a friend of course!
Then on Monday a parcel arrived unexpectedly, with presents for me - a cute key chain purse,
followed by some magazines and lots of matching fat quarters! These cute kids prints are going to make a great quilt! Can you see the great butterfly pattern I have already ear marked, I don't do enough cute girls cot quilts and I had seen a picture somewhere in blog land of this butterfly and now I have the pattern!
And there were presents for my two boys, two super cute pillow cases each - all from my friend
Karen. The boys loved their new pillow cases and we had to immediately put them to use ; )
Then tonight DS2 told me he needed a library bag...apparently library day is tomorrow! He requested lion and zebra fabric, and surprisingly I had some that fitted the bill!
So this is my first finish for February. But I have been enjoying everyone else's hard work and generosity!
Happy quilting, Sue SA.
