The First Quilt


Right girls - here we go - layout of first quilt which will, hopefully, be handed over to my Sophie in just under 5 weeks. This one has contributions from France, Australia, America and Finland.



Sophie - I was wondering. As you will be up in little Sophie's part of the world on Boxing Day, would you have time to hand it over?

Debbi's Blocks

And you guys on Beta think you've got problems! Debbi sent these to me by Express Mail some 2 weeks ago. Bless her heart, she then sent me the pics which were huge and it took me half a day to download them. It has taken me all this time to reduce them to a size that Blogger would accept.

Et voila!




Why I am Doing This.

Most of you know why I am doing this, but for the "newbies" I thought I had better explain.

You can read about how this got started here.

Just because I have received around 60 blocks doesn't mean that this has finished. I have enough to make about 2 quilts. 2 quilts is not enough - we need more so keep those blocks coming.

Sophie's Diary

I came across this blog whilst searching for something else. I can't read much of it as I keep on getting a lump in my throat!

I'd like to send her one of our quilts. If you all agree, I'll get started on Quilt No.1 as soon as possible.
