February works

Have had a tough time feeling sick, doing a few housesits where no internet, or table space to sew.
But managed to sew buttons onto the quilt for one granddaughter only need to add a few pearls here and there for accent .





Found a lovely piece of fabric (thanks to the 5 cross roads Hamilton sewing shop) for finishing the Tribal quilt for grandson will cut and applique the designs.

Am also half way through sewing a simple square quilt for DIL though it will be a super king size, mostly blues and purples, with a dash of colour thrown in there.

Here's hoping March will bring better health.
