well, things have been moving along, by that i mean that i have sketched about 10 designs and discarded most of them :)
but i think i have settled on an idea....
looks great doesn't it - yeah right!
i think i will just start having a go making some of the surrounding blocks, and then work on the centre piece later.....the idea at the moment is to embroider a poem on there about boys..... because....
this is the fabric im going to use - some fat quarters i got from the craft fair last year
these are some of the main patterns
and then these are the plainer fabrics, after the little human rearranged them for me :)
love that chubby little wrist :)
and did someone say they were ready for their close up???
argh! man, that is one harsh flash :)
will let you know when some actual stitching starts on it!!!!
pugs and kisses

i just love it - will be hard to cut in to :)
Thanks! It'd be so perfect for a newborn quilt! Alas I already have baby quilts planned for my next babies. The nursery is Beatrix Potter so I'll do matching quilts - hopefully with a vintagey look. I have the feature fabric and everything! Now I just have to get the babies somehow! ;-)
at least you have organised what you can control! and so organised! the moment you conceive you can stitch!
