Big school is go!

Today my precious first born, Zoe, started school!! My darling I am so proud of you and how you handled your first day! I was delighted by how excited you were about this next stage in your life. I was in awe of how composed you were and just how happy you were to be there. I love you Zoe Pops xxx

Nanny's Quilt - first completed quilt in 2010 - or is it?

This quilt has been a long time in the finishing. I did the quilt top in January last year for my lovely Nanny. It was finished in a hurry to give to her sometime later in the year, with no handquilting done and a dodgy binding. When we were out there before Christmas (she lives 3 1/2 hours away from us) I took it back and have redone the binding and handquilted the 30-something blocks on it. So even though it was finished in 2009, it was REALLY completed in 2010, so do I count it as my first 2010 quilt??? Anyway, Here is the finished result straight out of the dryer - i love how the dryer just crinkles everything up on a quilt, makes em so more loveable! I really must spend some time working out photoshop so my photos are not so dark and dreary looking!

Happy New Year!

Wishing you a Happy and Healthy, Successful + Creative 2010.

I plan to spend a whole lot more time being creative this year...and to get to 50 books in 2010.
