I got a new quilt kit yesterday - A Walk in the Park! I'm hoping it is as easy as it looks to put together - I love the colors in it.
I also started a baby quilt for Julie - David's daughter (step daughter??? Whatever you call it, she's been part of the family since she was a baby) She's due the middle of June with a baby girl. If figured I needed something fairly quick, since I waited so long.
Here's my color choice critic......
And here's the paperwork critic telling me I need to do the paperwork first before I get to play......
And here's the quilt up on the project board. The pink boarder strip is just there as a filler. I don't know what I'll use for the border, but I had that in my stash and thought I'd try it out. I did manage to use a lot of the colors from my stash - I only bought the main butterfly fabric, and three fat quarters (so far at least!) Not too bad!
I also finished up a crocheted cotton grocery bag for Margene! I made one similar for myself for my kayaking bag. I needed something to hold my camera and 'stuff' in the body of the kayak so they stay out of the water, but I also didn't want them to disappear in the kayak either! It worked okay last trip - not the bag's fault. I need to work on the logistics of filling it.....
