Goodbye 2012

So things have been a bit quiet around here the last few weeks and i just wanted to pop in and say hello. We have been the house of the Virus. Even the dog has had a virus and had to have a wee holiday  at the vets getting IV fluids and medication.

Christmas ended up being very quiet, and New Year is not going to be a party, as I have been in bed with flu for the last few days, and it looks like my husband is going down with it too.

I've been enjoying seeing some lovely mosaics popping up of things people have made over the last year and although I fancied doing that (for about 5 seconds!) I just can't be a***d!

I did manage to finish the quilt I showed in my last blog post so I'll show you that instead




It was for my sister and brother in laws' Christmas and I made some matching bunting. I used a flannel sheet as backing so it's lovely and soft and cozy. Hopefully it's the perfect festive movie quilt :)

I also received a very very sweet pouch from Hadley in the Brit Bee secret Santa, but I haven't taken a picture of it yet. I'll save that for another post but Thank you Hadley I love it :)

So that's it for 2012, see you in 2013!!!

Love
Fiona x

  18. It's a stunning quilt - I love the hexi stars pattern, but was rubbish at putting triangles together with any success, so thought I'd better steer clear of this one.
