Oops! I Started Another Project!

I really didn't mean too, it just happened. 😄 

I have a lot of projects that I'm working on, some on the machine and some by hand, yet at times I have 'nothing' to do! How can this be? This new one is an applique quilt along and I'm doing it on the machine.

This new QAL started last Tuesday with a new block is released each Tuesday. It is called QAL By the Sea and is from Partners in Design, a group of quilt pattern designers on FaceBook. Block one is designed by Bec from Pretty Piney.

I think it turned out very well. I cant wait for Tuesday and the next block.

While starting this new QAL, and looking around Pretty Piney, I came across this really clever 'trick' for making the pleated face masks. And I made it and it works a treat. The highlight of the week though was the birth of our grand-daughter number 5. She lives in England and we live in Australia, so it will be a few years until we get to meet this tiny precious baby. On a brighter side, I'll have time to finish her quilt.

I did finish a reversible bag for grand-daughter number 1. She loves sloths (at the moment - could change at any time) and after 12 months of looking for suitable sloth fabric - since her last birthday, I found some.

 Cute, right? I made it reversible with her favourite colour yellow.

I made an inside pocket for a pen, phone, and other - I put tissues and stuff in that one in mine.

That's it for this week. Here are my link up parties for this week. Check them out for some great inspiration:
