Hello! OK we are in August ..... The seasons are changing and dare i say it life is getting weirder and weirder. This thing (who shall not be named) will be with us a good while longer. We all seem to be getting on that page .... well mostly!
I am so so grateful for many things. Where i live is one of them. I am so grateful to be in the country side, I have all this on my doorstep and if I am careful i have it mostly to myself.
More hedgehogs!! there is always one which goes in the opposite direction!
Geckos too and a fish pie 😊
There hasnt been much coffee and quilts action this month, but here is one with a new favourite mug! Never a truer word spoken!
Oh i did manage some great fun marbling fabric!!! I had forgotten how much fun this was. I really do need to do more of this, very cathartic.
I have been knitting! the Kunye shawl, using up some linen wool I bought at last years Indie burgh craft crawl, I was going to say it is going really well but last night i had to rip out about 5 rows .... never mind back on track now.
ohh yes .... I have succumbed and made a mask out of an orphaned emboridery. It was only when i looked in the mirror i saw i looked like Hannibal Lecter! I may not wear this one going out!
Oh and this one too, a liberty scrap pack for Alice Caroline quilt sos
What better way to finish off than with some epic quilt holding from the maestro himself! I squeezed in this last finish for August, radiating sparkles pattern by Mack and Mabel. This is destined to go to the Alice Caroline SOS project. a rather fitting end to the month! I hope all is well with you and yours xx

So whats been going on craftwise?? well it is really killing me but i am working on something i cant share!!! ITs for the GMQG and I will be able to share it in October ish but here are some sneak peaks. I am using my stash of Helen Steele printed fabrics, super designs and here is a particular favourite, hedgehogs!! How cute are these!
We took the opportunity to soak up the last of the summer sun and eat outside, dont think we will be doing that for a while!
I have been slowly slowly plodding along with the broken paperclip quilt, it will feature in next months furtle!
