Bags & Goodies

Worked on 3 draw string bags today to put the sewing kits into for New Beginnings. I had 2 blocks made from Jenny's shabby roses BOM. I changed my mind about colours & re-made the first 2 blocks. These have been sitting there since then waiting  for a project. Finally found a worthwhile project for them. I also had a little embroidered rose from the last Angel swap sitting there so it has been used now.

Bag one with the love block.
Bag 2 with the beauty block.

Bag 3 with the rose embroidery.
Finished another block for "Tis The Season". 3 down 9 to go. I have been trying to find fabrics for this project without much success. Someone also doing this project mentioned getting a kit from Tereasa. I emailed Tereasa to see if any left & i was lucky. The parcel arrived in today's mail.
Gorgeous fabrics to play with. :)Tereasa also included these 2 little goodies.
Pretty fat 1/4 & a lavender paper sachet.
Forgot to mention about my latest kitty cup i found whilst shopping last week.
And Cath just dropped in these gorgeous hand dyed felts by Cottage Garden Threads. This range is Noon.

You have so many lovely things to talk about. The bags are very special with the stitchery and Your tis the season block is very cute. I find it hard to choose fabrics that go together. The fabric kit looks great, and I just love the kitty mug! Then you continue with those beautiful felts. A pleasure to look at everything.

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
