Wednesday W-I-P #2

Here is my next w-i-p. This will end up being an advent calendar. This one is for my sister and brother-in-law. I made one last year for my family here at home. I also have another one in the works to list on etsy. What do you think? Would you buy one? Sorry the photos aren't so good.




This is the completed one I made last year. Pretty cute, hey??

Progress!!!!!

Mum and I have been working hard on our cross-stitches, and I'm so pleased with our progress. We have both completed two each and are now starting on our third. I'm hoping to complete even more over the next couple of days as of 8:00 tonight I will be embarking on the 40 hour famine. I won't be able to eat, use the phone,computer or television, so I'm thinking I'll have heaps of time for cross-stitching!!!! :)

These ones Mum cross-stitched
And these are my first two
This is my current one I am working on, and if you can work out what the picture is of, I will be very impressed! :)

Wednesday W-I-P

I've always enjoyed looking when other blogs did a Wednesday w-i-p (work-in-progress), and so I decided to unashamedly copy the idea. :) I just started working on this last week for a friend who is having twins later in the year. Since she is having twins, that means I need to make 2 of these quilts which means 24 individual squares. Mum kindly offered to help me, so hopefully I shall move through it slightly faster. 

This is my first one - now if you use your imagination, you should be able to picture in the big blue blob on the left Mother Rabbit. The big pink blob in the middle are Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cottontail, and the small blue blob on the right is Peter. Can you picture it?? :)



This is the back of the pattern with the 12 different squares that we need to make. I'll continue to keep you updated on my progress, thoughy probably not every week - that could get very boring!!!


Stay tuned for next week's w-i-p - it will probably be something Christmassy!
