Sisters choice

Deb K. used the Sisters Choice block for her recent online mystery, my quilt is not set the way Deb did her mystery, as I have done a straight set.

Love the fabric for the border, it looks good in real life so might take a close up photo so that you can see it better too.

Used another two blocks as pockets for a shopping bag for my sister - who else ... LOL

For the quilt I purchased the border print, the green used for cornerstones and everything else came from the stash.

I can post the photos of the bag now because Sharon has received it.

Today I am wanting to finally finish quilting the baby quilt for Noah.

Then a naturopath appt for me followed by a doctor's appt for DH ... so off I go!

shopping bags

Only managed to get 3 shopping bags made this week.

Made from remnants of curtaining fabrics, these are lined with rubber backing which should make them ideal for carrying refridgerated items home from the shops.

Hopefully will have a good supply of nice strong shopping bags by the time the plastic shopping bags are eliminated which is proposed to be at the end of 2008.

Did manage to get some grocery shopping bags made from some of the sheeting squares before I went to hospital a week ago.

Progress is slow but slow is better than no progress.
