Mum & Grannies

I recall with ease just what I was up to 30 years ago today.............as well as being terribly proud of my fine young son, I am also forever grateful to the clever optical experts who came up with very thin spectacle lenses. Goodbye Deirdre!


More conventional December news - I have finished my Granny blocks that I am making along with my classes for our Modern Sampler quilt. I now have all 20 done and assembly will be after the Christmas & New Year break.


I also finished this large block / small quilt, made from a QuiltJane pattern. It finishes at 24" square, I have a notion to make a quilt of giant blocks.........................


It was made with the leftovers from my Tree Skirt,
