Yesterday was a productive day!
Firstly I got Kat’s block done for the Sew Bee Happy monthly bee group:
Kat is putting together a rainbow reverse star picnic quilt, and we all got to choose a colour to do our own block in. I went with the pale aqua/duck egg blue category and pulled together all the scraps I could find.
These blocks are 17.5″ unfinished, but really quick and easy to make. So this will be winging its way to Oz next week.
Secondly, I got my Mouthy Stitches Swap Pouch finished!
You may remember I started with this design:
which quickly turned into this heap of fail!

| And the moral of the story is – don’t try stepping out of your comfort zone late at night when you’re tired! |
So back to the drawing board. I can’t explain too much behind the whys and wherefores of this design because it would completely give the game away as to who this pouch is for.

| My photography skills aren’t improving any!!! |
Daughter no.1 made the cute owl zipper pull, and the bright, floral print is some original 1960’s vintage fabric.
I have one more wee surprise to make, to go along with the pouch, and that will be me finished and ready to post to *&%$£!+* (you didn’t actually think I would tell did you?).
Hope you’ve have a productive weekend!
