Steve and Jo's Quilt

I have just started a quilt for my friends Steve and Jo. They got married about six weeks ago, this will be a late wedding gift! Oops! Anyway I'm sure they will forgive me. I saw this pattern on the moda bake website and loved it instantly. Jo's favourite colour is blue, so I picked lots of blue fabrics for the centres and some greens. I'm hoping to sew together the blocks today and then try to pick some fabric for boarders. Here's a photo of the centres and first finished block. It's not flannel but I do still love it.



















Last week I made a quick laptop cover for my daugther Emily. Hopefully it will protect her computer a bit.

 I also made this little baby flannel quilt as my mum had brought a pack of flannel squares. This was such a quick quilt as the fabric was already cut.

Sally's Wedding Flowers

Last saturday my beautiful friend Sally got married. She was blessed with a sunny day which was important as it was an outdoor service. The whole day went so well, Sally looked so gorgeous. I made her bouquet of red and yellow roses, the buttonholes and corsages. Although I only took photos of Sally's bouquet, silly me. It was really nice to do some flower arranging again. God has made so many beautiful flowers it is just lovely to be surrounded with them. Thanks Sally for the opportunity to be a florist again!
