Finally a picture of the ufo that is now finished. It's very simple but very warm! Also some new camellias which always bloom later than the others - these are my favourite.

Lovely Labels
When I was young my Nanna used to say 'she has tickets on herself' when she saw someone acting in a proud manner or believing themselves to be above other people.
I was never sure what that meant. I imagined that the person she referred to had labels, or stickers, or train tickets stuck all over their clothes.
So now I have these lovely labels for sewing onto my quilts and clothing that I make for myself and others. I hope Nanna wouldn't have thought me to have 'tickets on myself'. Today I went to Spotlight and bought another summer dress pattern and top pattern and fabric. I figure if I start sewing for summer now, by the time it comes around I should have some nice clothes. With posh labels!

Group "Crystallisation" Quilt
Here is the progress on our group quilt which we will sell or raffle for a charity when completed. Last week I prepared the plain backing fabric and added in the strip of blocks down the centre, then ironed both the front and back and snipped off all the hanging threads ...big job! It is ready now for machine quilting and we thought a wavy all over design, nothing floral, would suit.
