When I started maternity leave I made myself do all the boring sewing jobs first (shortening pencil pleat curtains for starters ick!) and then finish off all the random projects I had previously begun before I started anything new. However, 6 months on I may just have a few works in progress again ;)
I bought the fabric for a play quilt for the little monster before she was born with the intention to make it whilst waiting for her to arrive. The monster had other ideas and put in an early appearance delaying her quilt by a good few months. Its only a simple wonky log cabin but I've never quilted before and thought I'd start on something simple. Anyway 7 blocks down 9 to go. The little monster's need for dribble bibs far out weighs her need for a new playmat at the moment (especially as her Godmother has made her a beautiful quilt to wriggle on) so today I had to get on with those. They are all cut out now ready for the machine - no one ever warns you that its the cutting, pressing and pinning that takes all the time with sewing and that the actually sewing is the easy bit!
