We had a lovely family lunch out, and then walked some of it off by the shores of Lough Neagh!
The rest of the day was spent in the garden. Oh how I love sitting in my garden!
No sewing today! But I can show you a quilt top I finished yesterday.
Sorry about Poppy's rear in the pic! |
I'm dithering on the backing for this one. I want to keep it light and sunny, but don't have anything in my stash that is quite right! Might have to go shopping (when they eventually reopen - Thursday over here!).
The first half hexie quilt top has now been basted and is ready for quilting!
Hope you are enjoying the Easter break!
Jude xo
now I know where the sun was yesterday! Quilt looks good, I am sure you will find a great backing for it, our shops are open today, well the big ones but no plans to shop, I am going to try my hand at a bit of machine quilting, first attempt!
ReplyDeleteLove Kate Spain! This looks super, light and airy.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good day with family, J.
I love Kste Spain too and the top is distinctively hers and very lovely. Just like your Easter day - sounds like it was special. x

ReplyDeleteSunshine thief - it rained all day yesterday and I got caught in a shower today too!
ReplyDeleteLove the big hexies xxx
Jude! What a tasteful and exuberant top you've created! I enjoy seeing the play of the colors in the daylight -- against the Belfast brick, sky -- hovering over your lawn. And who's that little creature with such a cute tail? Shine on! kate
