Yes you did read right - i have finished another quilt! Last week i decided to just knock the aqua and red cross quilt off the WIP list for good. Last Tuesday i took it to mum's and she helped me to baste it and by Saturday it was all quilted and bound...

...i used a lovely soft minky on the back, which was a little difficult to baste but totally worth it!!!...

Also this morning i started and finished this tray liner while i had my very first Brooklyn free morning [school is awesome!!!!]...

...i purchased that gorgeous bamboo tray this week [for a bargain!] and thought it needed a little something to make it look more at home in my lounge room. You may recognise the hexies from [this post] because i was going to be using them for a travelling hexie kit but after putting that onto the WIP pile shortly after it was started, i decided to put them to better use :)
While Brooklyn was at school this morning, Heidi went down for a nap and i finally started to see the real benefits of school hehe! My house has never been so clean - i actually SORTED MY WASHING!!! This is generally a biannual event haha, we spend most of the time grabbing things from baskets or the dryer instead haha. I also have no dishes lying around and the beds were actually MADE! Truly amazing!
The other night, I also spent some time pinning together these face washers that i started making last year...

...i am using [this tutorial] to make them up. Have you noticed that i've been trying to finish off some WIPs?! And that i actually have been?! Amazing huh!
Tonight i'm going to mum's again for another sewing night and i'm taking this along...

...i have traced out a couple of [Aneela's] embroidery patterns to use in the centers of the 6 little apples dresdens that i am making into a quilt for my Heidi bear's birthday in April. I also have some swoon block cutting to do! Eeekkk!
