I hope my niece, likes it and that her baby arrives safe and sound.
This is a blog about quilting and my creative life. I am mostly a quilter but I do dabble in all things crafty from time to time which is probably why I have such a pile of UFOs

Baby Afghan in Green
I just finished this baby blanket. I knitted it with 6mm needles and baby yarn. It is very soft. I used a simple K1,P1, moss stitch so it was easy to work on in the truck driving across the prairies. My sister-in-law, suggested I just single crochet around the edge so I got some white yarn that is made of cuddle fleece and did a couple of rows around. Soooo soft.
I hope my niece, likes it and that her baby arrives safe and sound.

Wheelchair Bag
This was a secret project so I didn't post about it sooner. But the recipient is now in possession so here goes.
First I chose some rainbow coloured fabric. She loves rainbows...
Then I stitched up the bag in a simple messenger style.
As you can see the straps are loops only. They fit over the chair pushers and keep her stuff handy. Oh, yes and a small peek inside...
Oops apparently I made the straps a bit short. Hopefully we will be in the same city soon and I can fix the issure...

Foxglove at Night Wall hanging
I just love these blocks. The colours are sooo vibrant.
And finally, put together and all those paper bits removed from the back. Yeah!

Wheel Around Quilt
Here I am back to working on this project. More than half of the blocks were done from my last go round (Sept 2013) with this project and they were all cut and prepared for sewing so it was easy to put these last blocks together.
Then into a finished quilt top.
