Funky Dinosaurs

 Those funky dinosaurs are having such fun, sun glasses on, headphones clamped on their ears, listening and no doubt dancing to the music.  I wonder what sort of music dinosaurs like to listen to?  Gemma decided they weren't as scary as she had thought, and cuddled up to them on the sewing machine cabinet for a while.

I had better keep an eye on these dinosaurs, just in case, she's thinking

So that is another RSC finish, I'm pleased to say.  This one is destined for Grandparents Raising Grandchildren, a very worthy cause.  I like to make sure there are boys quilts included too.  Just a simple block, and I like the way the colourful zig zags march down the quilt.  I got this idea from Lou Heron's blog, thanks  for the inspiration, Lou.



Dinosaurs rule!


And just one more

You may remember that I had got some kids fabrics given to me this week.  Another friend knew I make draw string donation bags, so gave me a bag of fabric too.  I'm always so pleased to get some for boys, there are two small pieces of motorbike fabric I can use for bags, together with some rather strange animals.  Cats and horses too, these pieces  are bigger so I may be able to get blocks for a small quilt, and lastly several mid sized pieces of red.  Didn't I do well!  But I do wonder if I will ever get to the end of my draw string bag making.


Thanks Monica

Today is a cold still day, I'm tucked up nice and cozy at home doing a bit of this and that  Some stitching, a little knitting, and I had some delicious home made chicken and veggie soup for lunch.  I love winter cooking - do you as well?
