Thanks to everyone for the get well wishes, I still have a sore throat and a cough but I am feeling much better than the beginning of the week. I will just have to let it run its course. As you can see I have been stitching the past few days. This is Spring House by the Trilogy. I looks nothing like the original of course as I chose my own colours using my yummy new threads.
I took my daughter Heather prom dress shopping on Friday, thankfully we did find the perfect dress but don;t anyone ask me about the colour. It is called Berry Metal but is very hard to describe. I will try and take some photographs when we go for a fitting in May. Not far from the dress shop there is a patchwork store which I just had to visit. I bought these lovely fat quarters and while browsing I found a large basket of ribbons on sale, so pretty I just had to have a few.
Thanks to Siobhan who gave me a lovely gift certificate in exchange for a magazine I sent her I was able to get these wonderful charts from the States. I am in such a tizzy I just can;t decide which one to start first...lol. Hugs!
