Do you like to part-eY? I do. Especially if it involves cross stitch or craft!
I haven't seen many cross stitch Linky Parties on the web so I've decided to start one. I like to keep up with my follower's blogs but sometimes I miss their posts. I like to meet new bloggers too. I like the way Linky Parties connect the blog writer with the reader.
The WiP I am sharing today, is an embroidery/quilting WiP (rather than my usual cross stitch WiP). I began it in a Sue Spargo (google famous US quilter) workshop last year. Sue is an absolute inspiration and I had a ball doing the class. Sadly, I put my woollen leaf wall hanging WiP aside and didn't touch it after the workshop ended. I wasn't sure about where to progress with it or even if I liked it! The cost of trimmings I purchased as part of the workshop to decorate the leaves has been bugging me. I have now vowed to embroider and decorate a leaf a week. I have even formed a FB Group called TooManyWIPs to inspire myself (anyone welcome to join).

What's under my sewing machine...
...a quilt for my one year old God-daughter, Elsie.
Yes, I am back quilting. About time I here you say!
I love this pretty colour combo - pale pink, grey and off white - by Bunny Hill Designs. I am using two Layer Cakes ( a pink version and a grey version). so there are 42 blocks in all. The topside of the quilt will be predominantly pink and backside the grey combination.
The quilt pattern is called "Shabby Linen Quilt" by The Quilter's Barn. Here is the first quilt I made using this pattern. I love it's snuggliness. Just perfect for a little girl.
Well I had better get back to my machine. Have a lovely Sunday...
