Continuing the saga of my little baby quilt

Managed to get one completed block. Thought I would complete one after trimming up the huge centre that I'd managed to make. Luckily it came out exactly the right size.



not a very good picture but you get the idea. I went on to make the rest of the centre blocks, so it's now all systems go.

Hmmm...I'm note sure that I like the border fabric now, I don't think it's got the right tone to go the centre fabrics. C'est la vie....can't afford to buy more fabric!

Oh Christmas Tree....

No, I haven't started early for Christmas!

Year before last I bought a growing Christmas tree in a pot. It seems to have been quite happy in the garden between Christmases and the other day whilst surveying what was going on in my postage stamp size garden I noticed teeny tiny cones starting to form....I was so pleased. (it doesn 't take much!) Here's a picture of the biggest one so far, but I don't think fully formed yet...
