almost finished!

Just taking a break from my Broken Glass blocks today because I'm a bit overdue with a gift! 
A friend of the family had a wee baby boy a couple of weeks ago & what does every newborn need? a little quilt of course!   I like to have a couple of small quilts here in the " almost finished" pile, just needing the quilting done and/or binding put on. She had popped in to visit a few weeks before baby came & picked out a quilt she liked, one I made ages ago & was almost, almost finished!!   So today I've sewn on the binding & will sit tonight & handsew the back of it down.







And remember these scarves ?


Well one easter rabbit has been made & went straight away to it's new home! 
I had an "Olive" day yesterday & we set about making a rabbit together! 
Olive chose the red scarf...lovely! 
I sewed & she stuffed!! 
(you can imagine the mess....small bits of white pillow stuffing all around the sewing room!!!)  But we had a lot of fun & I just managed to get a pic before she & rabbit went home!


Linking up with Lee @ WIP Wednesday later on today.

I need to do this and have a few baby quilts on hand for those "just in case" moments. Another reason to make more! ;-)

The quilt looks great, lots of different fabrics - and then you'll have the joy of delivering it to the new owner too! Love your rabbit, so colourful! Must have been hard to cut into the scarf as it's so beautiful.
