Slowly Does It

(Thanks to issues with Blogger I am about a week behind with my posts)


Contrary to the evidence on my blog I am still alive and crafting, although I do seem to have slowed down somewhat lately.

However I am still making steady progress with the two baby quilts which are gifts for July babies (so I really need to speed up again!). I have the top and back sorted for my jungle zig zag one and it's just (!) a case of quilting and binding. Willl hopefully have a close to finished version to show this weekend. And as for the rainbow one...

Although a slightly mis-orientated photo (going to let Blogger win that battle) I am really pleased with how its going. Just another two stripy borders with white corners to go. Luckily they're already all sewn together. And then some serious thinking about how to quilt it. Was considering stippling with rainbow thread in the white borders and something straight line in the centre, though stitch in ditch is out as close up the points nd seams don't meet.

I haven't just been sitting round being uncrafty during the last few weeks, I have become heavily absorbed in a shawl which I'm knitting as a present for the end of the year, and therefore will not make an appearance on the blog for a few more months.
