It's me again.  Weather was fairly nice this morning but I'm not holding my breath.  Took Mike to school and then came home to do the shopping - still with Hubby in tow, but at least he helps carry and brings his wallet.  He bought me a couple of pairs of shoes this morning so no complaints there.

Didn't do any sewing or knitting last night and may not do any tonight either but I have sorted and reorganised my kitchen worktops and they are lovely and clean and tidy - unfortunately it all had to go somewhere and at the moment it's all on the kitchen table.  This cannot last as we use the table several times a day and it will be needed for breakfast.

Sarah has to get herself up earlier tomorrow to get to school for a meeting about the Latin summer school.  Hopefully she will be awake enough to listen.  How many 13 year olds would volunteer for a weeks extra schooling in the holidays to learn Latin - but she's looking forward to it.  Good for her - would like to join her so maybe she gets it from me.

Made some scones this afternoon when I got back from school - surprisingly there's not many left now - last lot I made lasted about 10 minutes out of the oven.

Swimming lessons tonight - Mike did really well although he wasn't listening as well as he should be but at least he's swimming fairly competently now.

Got to think about what quilt to work on next.  Think it might be the one for my room as I want to get the millennium one finally ready to quilt but as Carolyn is starting the quilting company with the longarm quilter which can baste the quilt for me I'll hold off on that one till later in the year.

The next Quilt

Oh yes - and she adds a photo - said I'd give it a go.  I bought this as a kit with a layer cake and a bit of extra fabric along with the pattern from White Cottage out the money my mum gave me for christmas 2011.

I must have really liked the fabric as when I got it home I found I'd already bought exactly the same fabrics in a Jelly Roll.  So.... made this centre (not all joined together in the picture but it is now) and put the borders on but I want it to go in my room so it needs to be a bit bigger...enter the jelly roll.  Think I may do extra borders with it - maybe with piano keys? maybe something more adventurous.  But that with another border should make it big enough to go over the bed - can't wait the colours are perfect.  Need to give it a name though.

Will add pics of other stuff on the go later now I've done the first one they'll be no stopping me.
