A little bit of this and a little bit of that ...

Well how excited was I to come home from our little holiday to find I'd won not 1, but 2 giveaways!!!! I was jumping about all over the place he he he. I won some gorgeous flannels from Jennifer at Sweet Liberty Grace I can't wait for those to arrive :o), I'll be sure to show you when they do :o). AND, I also won a gorgeous Moonshine Bow Bag pattern from Carole at Madness and Mess!!! It must have been my lucky weekend!!!


Okay, well nothing's actually finished so I won't be updating my OPAM list on the sidebar just yet ... but I'm working on it, I have been getting a bit of stitching (and other stuff) done since we got home from Sydney :o).

I've finally got the borders on this cute wallhanging that I started AGES ago. I love it - and all I need to do now is sandwich it and quilt it. Those little hexies are 3/4" sides - the pattern is "Rebel" by Angels in Disguise.
I've also been working hard on my other project that must only be shown in snippets just in case the recipients are reading this blog ;o) ... [[if so ... Hi Fleeshy and Flossy LOL!!!]]the more I work on this one the more I like it. The colours - aqua and brown - are just gorgeous together!!!!!
And lastly I'm still plodding away on this rag rug while watching tv at night ...it's about 30" in diameter now and I still have no idea where I'll put it when it's done LOL. But it's fun to make he he he.
Talk soon .....

Joy I love your rug and it reminds me of the ones I made quite a few years ago now. I made one for my daughter and one for my mother and they lasted many years. I think they look great for bath mats too :)
