One Project i worked on is (nearly) finished. Well at least the top is finished! I have to wait for some days, so i have enough place again to finish this blanket.

The Pattern is a free pattern and it's the Pixelated Rose by @rileyblakedesigns

Second ever quilt finally completed. This one gave me nothing but problems but I got there in the end.

Plans for today: Finish my patchwork blanket (finally). Eating chocolate (a lot). Drinking herbal tea (stay healthy and hydrated)...and take naps.

Upcycling. Turning these two duvet covers into a patchwork quilt. Progress so far. It’s so rewarding turning unwanted items into beautiful things. As they say, ‘one mans junk is another mans treasure’.

I thought I’d share the progress of my creation so far from a birthday gift. I’ve turned some Kaffe Fassett 5” squares from Freespirit Fabrics into disappearing 4 squares and then bought some more fabric by Freespirit to frame the blocks which will eventually end up a lap quilt. It’s my second quilt that I’ve ever made. And I’m dead proud of it so far. Although it is a little too bright! 😎😎😎
