Yesterday I started on my Blue Quilt.
I cut out all the blue blades.
I cut out the backing fabric (White) into 12 and a half inch squares X's 30!
Then I made one of the 'flowers' that go onto the 12 and a half inch blocks... and BUGGER, DAMN AND BLAST! I had cut all the white fabric squares TOO SMALL! I should NOT have presumed that size would be right. Derrrr.
See:
So this week I shall have to go and buy more white fabric... Luckily it's not expensive.
So until I get the white fabric I will just make the flowers!
Today I'm expecting Amanda to bring Steve back from Hamilton... and of course wee Emily will come too... so it shall be a lovely day.
ONWARD...
Thank you Leigh... I will try that.
ABOVE: this morning's progress, which actually took me from 8.30 am to 2 pm ! But they are looking great.
ABOVE: 'Somebody' decided to eat my favourite summer shoes...
Now... when Teddy's been naughty he runs outside as fast as he can.... Coco usually does nothing!
ABOVE: I showed my shoe to Teddy... not a flinch... then I showed it to Coco... and she ran and hid in Steve's room! When I got her out from under the bed she just sat there and looked all guilty! Little bugger. I must remember to put me shoes up in future!
Emily's hips are doing well.. she has another scan in 4 weeks time. She also had her immunisations today... and did what all infants do and screamed. Such is life. Necessary evil.
Amanda and Co. are not here yet... expecting them for dinner...
End of Day: Steve is home again... Amanda, Andrew and Emily visited all evening and have just gone home. Amanda and Baby will be back on Thursday.
DIET: good
nite nite.
