Creative Space Thursday

Long time no blog, whoops! Well we were on holiday for 2 weeks, so may I be excused please?!
My creative space looks like this, this week: A stack of felt Christmas decs ready to be blanket-stitched and stuffed.

In other creative news, I've finished Robyn's Ellie quilt:

and I have taken steps to overcome my fear of all things woollen and have learnt to crochet! 2 scarves and one (less than perfect!) hat with more ideas on the horizon!!



Don't forget to stop by Kirsty's place for more creative spaces!

A patchwork present

I just thought I'd share the mini quilted patchwork blankie I made last week. Some good friends of ours had a baby a couple of weeks ago and finally picked a name last week so I was able to personalise this. It came together really quickly thanks to the Moda Flirtations charm pack I had in my stash. I used a fleecey sheet that I'd bought for Robyn's moses basket (but never used) as the back. I decided not to layer any batting or wadding inside as the baby will get most use from this in the next few months when hopefully we'll be enjoying lovely warm summery weather! I really hope our friends and their baby like it, they should be receiving it any day now, fingers crossed!!
