Spoiler Alert!

I have been printing patterns for workshops, buying erasers and craft knives!

Trying to get ready!   Haven't looked at fabric yet!

Except for the fabric to make this







I agreed a side swap with the lovely Di of Quiltova fame.  This was the brief: 

Oh how about a nice block that I can make into a cushion cover for the
kitchen.  Modern, whimsical, I don't mind much.  We've just painted the 
kitchen and everything is fresh, but the cushions are really crappy! 

Colours - grey, yellow and brown.   I used this pattern from the fab team Sew-ichigo - hope she likes it!    I will be handing it over at FQR!

And this little one






Another little side swap - this time with Catherine @ Knotted Cotton.  I admired Catherine's lovely Union flag in Liberty fabrics in Ali's recent ATC swap.   I told Catherine I liked it.  So she made one specially for me!
