Challenges and another Give away

This is what is keeping me busy at the moment. I entered a challenge last November but of course I leave it till the last thing to get moving. The ideas tick over and over and then I just have to do 'something'!!


Well I can't show you my quilt but here is the fabric.



I've done mine using paper piecing NEVER EVER AGAIN! and had to reverse stitch several times.. it's not perfectly matched up but hey, it's an entry..


I'm thinking of calling my quilt

"Rooster Biggs walked into the bank and said THIS IS ANOTHER COCK UP"!!!

Somehow I don't think the ladies would approve haha.

I have to tell you about Jill's giveaway.  It's a gorgeous Heather Ross fabric complete with selvege.  Jill was listed on Selvege Blog last week with a wacky misprinted selvege.  Those of you who know me know I love selveges.  I collect them like a Womble!!  And I look through them often for wacky words and colours.

Hi Karen,

It was good to catch up with you.
Laughed at the name you have given your work!
The fabric reminds me of the old Spirographs we used to have.
Glad that you have a job, a worrying time for you. Also that is neat the Annette has had a good time and what fun for your Grandson swimming with the dolphins.

Have a great week
Hugs
Carolyn.

ps. I have been watching Project Runway and was quite sad to see Logan go.
