Gifted quilt

This quilt was a pressie for my friend's b'day at the end of October, I'm glad I got it finished by Xmas! I used a Bliss charm pack. I used white quilting fabric and white damask for the borders (using up the stash!)

and a favourite sheet for the back. Yellow binding finished it off.

A perfect little lap quilt~

And as I haven't done Flea market Finds for a while, I thought I'd show this new item I got at the Salvo's. Brand new. In the box.

Yay, some new scales, in the colours I already have! They don't make these ones anymore, and I'm not quite ready to go digital!



I did it!

I finished the beanie! 4ply and all, and a good case of 'knitter's hand' (or whatever you call it after 6 hrs straight of knitting at the conferency yesterday). Once I got past the ribbing,

it was a breeze!

AND she likes it! (de ja vu to this girls blog)

apparently needs some pom poms (I want tassles, but hey, what do I know)

goes great with the hand made poncho

and my quilt- wow, such an enthusiastic look, looks like she's had a hard night out the night before (getting ready for the teen years)

I aslo bought these charm packs this week, from Retromummy. $40 for 84 squares. Of Brand. New. FArbic. I'm lovin' it. (free postage, too, guys!)
