The biggest thing to report is that my tangled quilt is now finished. As it’s the first quilt I’ve done I’m really happy with the way it’s turned out. So without further ado may I introduce the quilt:
I think it looks brilliant.
Here are a couple more close up pictures
I’ve been writing this post for over a week now. I started with the bit about my quilt then got sidetracked and then completely forgot. Then every time I remembered the cycle started again. So now I’m getting back to this post.
The quilt is the major thing I’ve been doing in the past few weeks but there has been tangling as usual and I’ve made a couple of cards too.
Here are the tiles I’ve done in the past few weeks.
The other night I was a bit bored so I decided to do something based on the tile that looks like it has cauliflower on it.
It’s only in a sketch book so it’s not brilliant but it filled the time for a bit.
Another tangly piece I’ve done recently after it was suggested by Sandra was a piece using the circular frames. It’s about 8inches square. (That’s weird saying a circle is in square inches).
I think it looks great and there has been some positive feedback from other people too.
I’ve also made a couple of cards one is one of the cards I don’t really like making. I find condolence cards slightly upsetting to make because it makes me focus on the fact someone has passed away.
I want to make the card special but respectful good but not so good it looks like you’re celebrating the passing it can be a fine line and a awkward at times. Anyway here is the card:
I’ve also done another card but this one is a birthday card for a friend.
It’s also a penny spider card and the monkey spins round as it goes across the track. I didn’t think to do a video of it spinning though so you’ll have to take my words for it.
Yesterday I started making a doll for Lucy. I’ve got as far as the head so far
Also over the weekend me, mum, dad, mason, Katie, Harvey and Lucy went out for Ice cream. Lucy tried ice cream for the first time. Mum gave Lucy a tiny bit of her ice ream to try and after that this happened:
She ended up trying to steal mums ice cream. So we decided that she like ice cream. You could tell she didn’t really want to give it back.
I think that’s about it for now so I’ll leave it there.
Love and light.
