Colourful bunting for kids

Image
I had the fabric cut for probably half a year, before I got my act together during the winter to trim, turn and press, and then I finally added the ribbon this week! Just another 50 or so to go... To make the bunting, just cut out triangles, take two, place right sides together, pin and stitch, turn right sides our. Attach bias tape at the top. Done.

More long eared soft cuddly rabbits

These super-simple, but oooohhh so soft long eared rabbits are a great hit with all little ones who I give them to. We have at least four being used at home and at the nursery at the moment; it seems one can never get too many!

Caught by the quilting bug

Image
With all the work with the hexagon pall, I seem to have caught the quilting bug (as well as a tummy bug).  I have been working on three different quilts for a while; two for my own kids and one for my sister's who is yet to be born. As I haven't decided who is getting what, I don't want to show of the full pattern, but here is a preview.  To say it myself, I am pretty pleased how well the middle turned out, especially since it was my first attempt at this particular quilt block!
