Yon Quilting Wife

I am just bursting with pride.

We have had such a lovely busy couple of weeks. My middle daughter has been playing at the Shetland Music Festival. She was singing in a choir, playing in a group and playing piano solo. Tavish Scott came along on the Gala night and talked for a wee while and the kids performances were all really good, well more than good, they were outstanding.

The whole school did really well and these are the trophies the bairns won.

Out and about with Emi.

Emi and I were in town on Tuesday. I said she could have a treat as she'd no been well, her request ? To go down to the pier to take photos and to buy some sheet music so she could write some tunes.. We don't have any tunes yet but here are the photos.

Sewing.

I haven't had much time for sewing. I did manage to get the binding sewn on to this Linus quilt. Now I have to do my least favorite sewing job, hand sewing down the binding onto the back of the quilt. I should really enjoy it, it heralds the end of the quilt but gee whizz it makes my hands ache. I didn't make this quilt, I think one lady made it and a couple of others layered and quilted it. So really I have had the least work to do,

This is another job I have finished and I really enjoyed this. I tidied up my stash. Blues in one box, pink in another etc etc. There's another box not in the picture with blacks and whites.
