As promised, here’s a photo of mum in her new skirt that I handed over last weekend when I was down there. Possibly because I accused her of looking startled the last time I got a photo sent up, this one is from the waist down… I used the Sew What Skirts book to create the pattern from scratch, which was a lot easier than you might imagine, and voila:
So that’s my third tick on the Finish Along list for this quarter yay!
I was cutting out the last of that blinking rainbow windmill cushion, and thought I’d kill 2 birds with 1 stone and get my last 3 blocks for the Japanese x and + swap cut and sewn too, so here they are:
Right, back to that cushion…
Lovely skirt, beautiful squares and I see a little teddy bear sitting on a chair. (o:
Hugs
How are you feeling?
the skirt looks great and so do the blocks!!
Great work, that'll teach you for being cheeky to your models tho… LOL
Is the photo of your mum called I spy the bear? I love the skirt and all your bright squares.
Hugs

Nice skirt. I'm into skirts at the moment. I might get that book.
Very nice skirt for your mum.

Bet mum is pleased with the skirt, well done. Loving the x and + blocks . . . Oh boy that will be a busy quilt 🙂
You are actually pretty multi talented aren't you? It's positively sickening.x
More fab work! Love the skirt and great pointed edges on those blocks!
The skirt looks lovely, your mum must be delighted. Your blocks look great too, can't wait to see the finished quilt!
You are certainly showing some of us up!! I have not clicked the first thing off my list yet!!
Those blocks are just gorgeous! I love the colors you're using.
Your mum has to love this skirt. It turned out great. The blocks are fantastic too! Don't you ever slow down or have a day when nothing gets done? Enjoy your day and I hope you're feeling better. Hugs
And of course thanks to the photographer is taken as read.
