The perfect bag

I had a little wander up Oxford street at Bulimba last week, looking in windows where I could not afford, and wandering in where I could- this was found in the over stocked 2nd hand shop, it was $8, just needs a small repair of wire on the handle, but it is perfect for me.
Madly hand stitching some blocks for my assessment pieces, ho hum, but I love the hand applique, so am bombing along on that one now I have finished the buttonhole block.
Went to a local patchwork shop to look for a cot size pack of either Hobbs or Mountain Mist polyester batting for the hand quilted block- as this is the best to use and I can make about 4 cushions out of the one piece- the newish assistant didn't even know what I was talking about...needless to say I need to go to another shop !

Playing nurse to my son who has had his wisdom teeth out today, ice cream, jelly and panadol.

Happy to have my raffle quilt finished, will put a hanging sleeve and label on it and then I can start in earnest on the next big quilt adventure.
