Well I showed you some blocks and chenille and that was going to be one of my projects while away.............while grabbing things out I found these blocks left over from another quilt and after a quick late night shopping phone call and pics emailed to Kerry she slipped back into the shop and grabbed me some cream chenille and a border fabrics to put this quilt together..........
Supposed to be a babies quilt but it has turned out a bit bigger anyway it means it will last a lot longer........
Dale has very kindly taken it home to quilt for me........thanks so much.........
A busy day today loading and unloading pavers that Mr Chookyblue picked up at a clearing sale for a bargain.......it has been quite awhile since he brought home something very useful.........
.....then out to lunch for a friends birthday.....
so a mixed day but I still have have a warm fuzzy feeling from my weekend with such wonderful people............thanks Cardygirl, Miss E, Kerry, Peg, Dale, Miss N and Miss Jules, Tooth Fairy.............Fairy Girl also got to go for part of the weekend and she was SOOOOOOO excited and had a ball..........she did some sewing too so will show you that shortly............
I need a detox from food...........we ate so much.............breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, nibbles, main and dessert...........late night chocolate...............OMG seriously excess of delicious food..........
More show and tell later...............
Catch you later

That quilt is so pretty! And I agree...a larger quilt will be more useful! Well done! :0)
That's a gorgeous quilt! The chenille adds a nice textured look to it.

That is a very pretty quilt, and the cream chenille finishes it off beautifully! How fantastic is Dale, quilting it for you!
