Parcels and Finished Projects

Last week I sent off some parcels and forgot to take photos, of course! I sent some of the Dreamline Quilt Backing to Alice, the latest issue of Handmade to Diane and of course the Purple Prizes to Deb. They all arrived safe and sound, which is always good to know! And I got my very own parcel from Di yesterday!! I was so excited! Here is what was in it:

I can't wait to start on the paper pieced pattern!! And the seam ripper - well, how did Di know that I lost half of mine the other day, the most important half too. So that will go next to my machine right away. I agree with Jenny that the emery board is way too cute to use, so it will sit next to my machine too :) And the cute little Christmas tag? Someone special will get that this year :) Thank you so much Di!!!!! You are so sweet :)

As for the second topic of this post - finished projects.. well, you'd think I'd have a lot wouldn't you? But even after all that sewing at Alice's it seems I only have one finish so far, which is the bushfire quilt that Cheryl quilted for me! I am going to try to do a post on that tomorrow, so stay tuned...

Oh, I did sew a dress for Elizabeth, yes, phew, there is something else!!! It's a nice simple bright sundress, (sorry the photo is not great):


Now, if I drag something out of the freezer for dinner, do you think I can quickly go and finish Cameron's quilt by midnight....? Let me go try....
