morning all
another beautiful day here - sign summer on way but we know that that can change in an instant at this time of the year.
Had a nice morning out and about with DD she found most of what she wanted at quilt shop I came out with a couple of bits too, marbled blue for backgound of one of the quilts swirling around in the concept stage and some backing for a quilt that I made 20years ago, washed it last year and the wool batting totally shrank and shrank, I knew that I had used some wool batting from spotlight in 3 quilts way back then , had identified 2 and couldnt remember which was the third. So will re-quilt that as it has been a family favourite in the swappa quilt pile. Family come and swap out quilts to get a different look in their bedrooms. Suits me as I would rather they are lying around on a bed than languishing in the wardrobe here.
We also popped in to the childrens bookshop - love that shop and went to Bata - DD lucked out there as nothing in her size that she picked out.
Finished sewing the dress yesterday afternoon, just need to get buttons. Will have a look through my button container but whats the bet that there are not 7 matching ones.
Enjoy your day
