How do you do what you do to me?

I wish I knew!   If I knew how you do it to me, I'd do it to you!  Karen!
I went on my friend Karen's blog - like you do!

 I spotted her delicious new screen printed fabric - and of course I bought some before I was even conscious of what I was doing!  (er I'm sure she won't mind me pinching her photo off her blog - thanks Karen!)


It arrived speedily - that Karen doesn't hang around!

 Then I made these cute, little cross blocks - I just had to...





Here are a few more and sashed in some gorgeous Essex linen....you would too if you were me!

And now I am thinking a tote bag of loveliness or a pretty large pouch!   

 So do tell me Karen - how do you do what you do to me?  

 Take it away Gerry

    These are great Nicky! Are you going to do some Scottish Saltires with the blue fabric?

    Karen's printing is gorgeous, as are your cross blocks!

    P.S. I can't help but think there's one word to describe you: incorrigible.
    P.P.S. But I love you all the same xx
