It was Quilt a Day

A few weeks ago I finally decided to make this quilt piece into a pillow instead of building a whole quilt around one square.
I love how it turned out, retro childish fun.
It makes me smile every time I look at it and it's bright colours.
I had the perfect chair in the school room and now it sits in the living room where I get to enjoy it every day.


My good friend M is, among a million wonderful things, an amazing thrifter.
There is nothing she doesn't find.
I am always envious of the treasures she finds.
She spotted this fabric and new that I could do "something" with it.
In exchange for the fabric I made her a throw quilt for her couch.
I made some pillows for myself but now think I may need a throw to match as well.
Tonight I finally got it done.
After 2 months I think she will be pleased to actually get it.

Tonight I also had the opportunity to finish 2 more quilts.
I have had 3 quilts and so many other things on my sewing table, it was becoming quite a burden mentally.
I started 2 quilts for my friends twins and had hope to get them to her when they were born. Well that has come and gone by 2 months so I gave myself leeway and promised them for Christmas.
What a relief, they are done.
I must say I do love them.

For Miss Ava
And Mr. Aden

Now I just have to mail them.........
