A little middle of the month progress report on my planned finish for February: it's not going very well :-( This is because the fabric that I ordered still hasn't arrived. I hope it will soon, but then I will probably have to pay import tax on it (so irritating, you have to pay more and as a 'reward' it takes a lot longer to arrive) or the package is lost of course (I hope not!!)
I did make the two blocks that I planned to add to the quilt though! The message in a bottle:
And Mr. Nilsson, Pippi's pet monkey:
In the meantime I have made all my bee blocks for this month, a quilt-as-you-go pouch and have started a lone star quilt from this tutorial.
I think both projects have the scrappy spirit of Pippilotta...
Let's hope the fabric arrives soon, so I can start putting those quilt blocks together!!!
P.S. Did you see? Last month I won one of the prizes from the Lovely Year of Finishes!! I won a gift from Stitches 'n Giggles; I chose several lovely FQ's of mainly red and white print fabric. I felt so lucky to win!! Thank you, Shanna, Melissa and Lori!
