My mum just sent me this snap of an old photo she came across- my first love Tara, she must have been around 10 here back around 1996. I didn’t know we had these pics and it made me smile so much, still think of her a lot.

All done ! First quilt - Phewww...... that was a journey, so pleased to love something I’ve made myself - I’m officially hooked !

No filters needed, wee broccoli has the shiniest coat and just perfection in my eyes - 14 months

Oh wow ! Mum you’re home - have you met our babies ? Does anyone else’s labs run to bring you a toy as soon as you get home ?

Flo had an op (she’s fine) Had to lock her in the office with me coz the others missed her and wouldn’t give her little stoned head a minute when She got home. She wanted to play but couldn’t even walk. It’s the sad.. I want my sisters but I want to sleep and “I don’t know where I am mum” face

Afternoon project - easy panic (I thought I had a month and realised I had a week) baby quilt for a colleague. Never perfect but I think it’s cute ? I’ve left a corner of binding as it’s too late at night to embroider a tag but I’m happy and hope she is and uses it :)

I’m very lucky to be able to work from home but so difficult to tear myself away from the happy desk to the work desk !

My traumatic 3.5m long Xmas couch cover finally finished and already being loved. Serious amount of “undocumented design features” in this one, wine and sewing makes for many squiggles.

Further to a fellow quilters amazing post - I’m not just I”sew”lating - I’m wine”sew”lating ! No meat, eggs, bread or veg in my supermarket today before I locked myself in but we have stashes of material and alcohol - that kills it surely ? ;)

Just installed new laptop arm ! This is going to be way easier for watching tutorials and designing on the fly ! Have these on all my other desks at work and office and never considered for sewing desk ! Perfect :)

I’ve hated this quilt since I cut the material up. Now in love as my favourite Uncle loves the design and colours and wants it for his living room as a hanging ! I’ve never unpicked as much in my life knowing someone wants it to be a focal point 😍

Im all squared out today - start of a Xmas couch throw, not bad In 5 hours work, loving the scandi colours and patterns

Final push - straight(ish) lines are so boring (don’t know anything else) - desperate to get it finished ! Requires Sauvignon blanc 👌🏻

The most patient bunch of cavs and labs ever ! I can’t get my 3 labs to sit as nice as my cousin can get his brood like this- amazing !

was messing about trying to paper piece (posted earlier so sorry to be a bore) and got some random shapes eventually and with improv- made this cute little square and I love it ! Never been a pattern girl and not long started - Think I’ve found my niche - must be the engineer in me lol

Top & back finished for MIL Xmas, ran out of burgundy material-used some to bind another so improvised and pieced the back - now how to quilt it ? I’m a not so good straight line novice but unsure how that will look on the front - straight on a diagonal ? Anyone any better (easy)ideas for me please?

Slightly over estimated binding requirements - by about 5 metres 😂😤 oh well - another thing learned - at least it wasn’t the other way around lol
