The house has never looked as good! Of course, the catalyst was a pending visit from my cousin (from Queensland) and her gorgeous daughter - Miss Poppie is staying at mine for the week while her mum attends to work here in Victoria. Today we went to see Ice Age 4 - in 3D - it's fabulous having a 9 year old around the place - certainly keeping me on my toes.
In between girly stuff with Miss Poppie, I've been putting together a quilt top that has been on my list for, oh, about 100 years....it's not finished - I think it needs a border or 2 as it's currently about 44" x 55" and I'd like it to be a bit bigger - and it's mostly from a range called Tokyo Roccoco by Carol Van Zandt for Andover fabrics - the solids were a happy match from good old Spotlight.....so there's more to do, but I thought I'd show you any way.....
....and now I'm off to finish testing a pattern for a bloggy friend - it's all cut out and I'm starting to sew it together - and I best get my skates on as the recipient had her baby yesterday.....
