Review of the week

School holidays are over, and the kids went back to school on Monday - I tidied and cleaned the house and it stayed that way for the whole day!
Monday night I had quilt group at my house - made a coffee cake that was really yum

It was the series final of "Grey's Anatomy" - I cried a little bit

Back to swimming lessons and rugby practice again for both boys

I started reading this book : I have enjoyed reading many of Margaret Forster's novels in the past, so this looks promising.

Saw this at the movies :The book is better, but still a good evening out with a girlfriend
Finally got the worms to start the worm farm that I got for my birthday
Met some friends on various days for coffee

Thinking about library work again - I left 4 years ago to be home with my kids
Spent a morning with my sister-in-law and nephew - Hi Nicky & Harry :-)

Traced this pattern (to the right) and selected some materials.

The pattern is available here - click on the tab for projects

It is a design by Piece O' Cake - click here for their blog

and here for some of their lovely books.

I love their work and have made other quilts of their design...will share them in another post.

I started stitching paper for a new book project.

They don't look much yet, but if you click on the below links, you will see the general direction of where I am headed!
