The Postie has been kind this week ;-)

Hi everyone

well, the postie has been kind to me this week - lots of squishies and no bills ;-)


I received this lovely potholder from Lauren in my February Sewing Swap for CraftMad


The photos do not do it justice - the fabric is just GAWGUS!!!!




This is the potholder I made for Annmaree to fill her request for BRIGHT COLOURS


I hope it is bright enough ;-)


I posted earlier HERE about what I made for the February CraftMad Quilt string block swap and here are the blocks I have received
From KellyG - thank you so much, these colours are perfect ;-)

From Annette - I love the florals


From Mandy - I love the soft batiks

For the February 6" swap I received the following blocks from Robyn
Thank You Robyn, I love the fabrics you have chosen
and I just love the cute tape measure included as well ;-)

Here is what I sent Robyn
Robyn asked for any block in any colours with a touch of blue.
I promised myself next time I got a request for 'any block' I was going to do a 'scrappy' block - I am unsure if it worked or not ;-(

Next are the blocks I received from Dawn - yes, I was lucky enough to receive 2 blocks - and so quickly too!
These are for the March Swap for Quilt Block Swap Australia



Thank you so much Dawn - your block will be made and posted to you soon  ;-)

Now for the block received from Michelle for February  Block Swap Adventure

Here is the block I sent her 





Wow, that turned into a marathon post!


Thank you for visiting my blog today - I hope you have a good day. 
Remember, any day doing something you love makes it a good day ;-) 
Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.

  1. Wow.....so much amazing sewing and beautiful work. Lucky you Cathy and your creations are just as beautiful. I really love the way that Lauren has quilted around the leaves on the potholder.....an idea I must remember. The potholder you made for Annmaree is terrific too. Really like that patchwork look and I think you should have met that Bright request. :-)
