I told you I’d been a busy beaver … here’s another project all finished up and already in it’s new home at the Quilters Shack in Bundaberg as a store sample. 
It’s another Honeybun Fun set!! I love making these, I think this is the 4th set I’ve made lol. It’s full of little surprises too … 
A zippered pouch, pincushion, scissor fob and cute needle wallet – here’s the inside of the needle-wallet… 
and the inside of the little tote … 
you can fit loads of goodies in there :o). Woohoo, an April finish for me :o)!!!
I’ve also been relaxing in the evenings with my “It Takes Two” quilt (by Sue Daley). It’s coming along very nicely … 
this one is all done by hand so I can watch tv while I’m doing it :o). Here’s one of the finished blocks…
I’m using an “Antique Roses” jelly roll, aren’t the fabrics gawjus!!?? And the embroidery is done with Cottage Garden threads - I really love their colours and the way this one goes from burgundy to green – soooo pretty :o).
And the icing on the cake for me was a package in the mail last week!!! I ordered some pretties from Pickledish Patch and I’m so happy with them all … 
I can’t wait to play with the hand-dyed wool felt, aren’t those colours delish :o)!!! Oh, and I just had to buy me a needle case to go with my quick unpick LOL. Thanks so much Vicki :o)!!!
Have a fabulous weekend everyone!!!!

Love that sewing tote snd your hand sewn blocks are sew lovely - and yes I love Cottage Garden Threads too - in fact I love ALL variegated threads (gets a bit addictive after a while and expensive) And good news for me - I have been meaning to look for any patchwork shops in Bundaberg - my daughter will be moving there in July - so a great excuse to go visit Bundberg and a new shop!!
Enjoy Joy!
Love the sewing box you have made, it is so handy:) And you have done a lot on your It Takes Two quilt. The fabrics you have used are so nice. Will go into my sewingroom now and look for the fabrics I want to use in mine. Look forward sewing on this one.
Joy it is just a great project you have made. Make a brillent gift.
I also love the colours in your blocks.
Lovely buys from Vicki's shop
