Six Months of Softies month 3
I received my latest "Six Months of Softies" pattern this weekend and I wasn't feeling like getting out the sewing machine after running around town all morning so I decided to work on it as it is a hand sewn toy this month. This is what I got done on it this afternoon.
It is much bigger than I thought it was but that is a good thing! I hope it turns out as nicely as the ones I have seen pictures of. I still have to make the toy from the second month as I was busy working on something else when it arrived!

It's for the Birds!

Thank you so much to

Ever since I signed up for the blog hop I have been surrounded by inspiration.
In my garden
on my calendar
in the craft magazines I was searching through to find another pattern
and a gift from a friend.
There were a few things I had been eyeing off at my favourite sewing shop too, so this blog hop gave me the perfect opportunity to buy them and make them. I have fallen in love with the Teddlywinks range of birds. So my first project was this Redwork wall hanging.
Then I started an appliqué
but I am just not that interested in appliqué after recently completing a very large quilt using this method.

So instead I made these two bags. I experimented a little with these making one with pellon wadding and the other with bag wadding. It was interesting and both waddings have their pluses and minuses.
I was hoping to get one of these Funky Friends made
but unfortunately other things got in the way
Thanks for visiting my blog and don't forget to visit the other participants in the blog hop for lots of wonderful and interesting projects.

Just a little post to show you what I am working on at the moment.

I cut out this quilt which is for a friend.
