March Catch up

 This was the sunrise this morning, if I wasn't in my pj's I would have driven up to the lookout for more pics, never mind.


So this month in the Chookshed Stitchers Challenge I have finished the quilting on a panel quilt for my grat niece, the binding is on and the hand sewing has started.
 I have also finished a By Annie Ultimate Travel Bag, it was a lot of work but I'm very happy with it. You know in all patterns they say read all the instructions first well that just confuses me but with this one I wish I had done it, the last page of the instructions there is a page with labels on it and it says to copy the page and cut the labels before cutting fabric...... that would have been helpful I thought of making my own labels but I would have had to number everything too much work, anyway it is done and has been entered in Mendoran Show this weekend.



A friend and I went to Craft Alive in Tamworth last weekend, it wasn't a very big show but there was a variety of shops there, I bought a cute cot panel from Logans Patchwork and also an aussie Christmas panel. I just need someone to have a baby now.

Lovely bag. Worth all the effort. Cute panel too.

Your bag is great! I have made By Annie bags an can attest to the helpfulness of those labels. Her bags look so professional, but take quite a bit of time.
