I forgot to show you these...

do you remember the other week I showed you these fabrics... well I forgot to post and show you the finished items. These cushions are a rather belated gift for a dear friends' birthday... she just loves these soft blues and pinks... they are just so her, so I really hope she likes them...

and these will grace our new home in Twizel, (well not new in years but new to us, it is a rather crumbly little cottage, emphasis on wee! 10 weeks to go - seems like forever but then there is lots to do and so much to pack, and pack and store and move...). These are Leanne's House, Two Brown Chickens..
These will help no end to lighten and brighten it up... and this is Chinese coin, (a Cozy Strip Club pattern) which I have finally finished. Unfortunately I cannot take the credit for the lovely quilting effort however, I did send this one off and I am really impressed with the way this has turned out, made a rather ordinary quilt into something quite spectacular... look at the variegated thread in the feather pattern,

so, several finishes for April... so far....

have fun, Shiree
