Of This and That....

My lovely blogging friend 

Melissa, of 100billionstars

generously sent me some of her

beautiful fabric 'scraps'!


I am thinking a patchwork zipper pouch 

might be pretty!

Suggestions being taken...

And more happy mail in the post box....

Rocky Mountain Puzzle bee blocks,


from Nicky and Sarah (via Nicky)- thanks ladies!

Lastly, I have a finish- my first for the quarter!


This jumper has been two+ years in the making!

I am happy to have it off the knitting needles,

and in the wardrobe!

Linking up with the 2013 F-A-L...

she can quilt

- my first for the quarter!

Happy sewing!
