Vase of flowers

Another week has raced by, where do the days go?  Life is busy at the moment:  work is busy, winter sports makes us busy and the weekends seem full on too!  Well that's my excuse for just having one little block to show you!  I started a new project to help improve a spot in my bedroom, as part of making a Pretty Crafty Home.  The nice thing about this mini quilt is that it's using two of the prizes I was given:  the pattern is Vase of Flowers from the quilting magazine I got from Kristen and the fabric is from Lyn.  Thanks you two, I am enjoying this new project.  Barney was on my knee the other night as I got some stitching done, I couldn't resist this view of him with his fangs showing, Wendy xx

    What a beautiful job you've done on the applique Wendy. Life gets busy and if we take just a little time to do things we enjoy it helps us through the business. Barney is beautiful, and aren't pets especially sweet while sleeping?
