I received my gorgeous doll quilt from Sheridan last week which is just perfect. She chose fabrics which I absolutely adore and has put so much effort into the little quilt. There are so many little pieces in this pattern and her hand quilting is SOO pretty.
These photos are from Sheridans blog, my camera is on the blink, I can’t even show you photos of what I have been up to. I made a crochet scarf for my little girl, finished and sent my doll quilt for the Lemonade Doll quilt swap and already have completed the baby quilt for my sister.
The baby quilt was so quick to make. I used the snails trail pattern and it looks so bright with the red and yellow fabrics. It is on its way to Sydney to be quilted as I type. It was a dream to make because on Mothers Day I was spoiled and given a new sewing machine. My hubby bought it for me and I am so happy with it. I am very lucky.
The Mothers Day weekend was also a huge time for me because after months of studying, I finally achieved my qualification and can work solo. The flying public in and out of the Gold Coast have nothing to fear. Now I am working full on shifts and am just not finding enough time in the day to do anything. And of course my weekends are full of chores.
Did I also mention that we just bought a house. This is our first home purchase. I can’t believe how time consuming the whole process is. We will be moving in a couple of months and am so excited about the whole thing just being over.
So over the last couple of days I have come to realise that at the moment I have a lot on my plate. I actually started to worry and think more about my blogging and my blog reading and internet habits. I began to realise that I need a little break. I have to stop worrying about what I might miss if I don’t check my favourite blogs regularly. I have to reconsider my posting habits or just post when I have something to say, rather than just show and tell. I am looking forward to making some things without having to take photos and worry about how I am going to write about it.
Don’t worry shenry I will always keep you in the loop – I couldn’t survive without our email conversations.
Life is busy and I really have to enjoy what is going on in my life at the moment and just unplug for a little while. xxlife
I am so glad that you like it.
Congratulations again on all the achievements lately. They are your just rewards for working so hard.
I will miss your posts, but understand. Hopefully life will settle down a bit later in the year for you.
Congratulations on your work achievement. Good for you!
And a new home! wow, your life is falling into place, isn’t it. Sounds like being a real grown up.
Enjoy the place you’re in; it sounds like a good one.
You are so busy right now. It makes sense to make some room. See you when you pop back.
Congratulations on your home. What a wonderful feeling.
That quilt is beautiful.
I am in LOVE with that little quilt, you are so, so lucky!
Enjoy the break. The quilting is gorgeous.l
that IS a gorgeous doll quilt!
Lovely quilt – what size are those blocks? (I just got the Bento Box pattern, but the blocks for the original are bigger – I am hoping that this one used those 5 inch charms.)
What a beautiful doll quilt! Enjoy your new home!
This quilt is lovely. I love the fabric choices too.
