speedy

just a quick one tonight, mae only had a 45 minute nap today - she remained in remarkably good spirits despite her tiredness so really the only downfall was my lack of time to get any sewing done - and i'm itching to get a few things done tonight. just wanted to show a quilt i have managed to finish off this weekend and also, say happy father's day to any dads out there! not likely that too many are reading besides own (happy australian father's day, dad!) but you can pass my greeting on to the ones in your life, surely.


this is a pram/basinette size (this one is about 95cm x 95cm) freeform quilt done in an array of blue cotton and linen shades, highlighted with a few sweet boyish prints. i am super happy with the way this one came together. i loved the way the scraps looked together but as i was piecing i wasn't sure how the final product was going to look. i seem to have a moment of doubt in almost every quilt i work on, a moment where i think, "no, this is just not going to be nice AT ALL." but then, magically, every single one turns out pretty much just how i saw it in my head. nicely.
