Vintage sheets

In all of the excitement of birthday celebrations and plans I had completely forgotten that this little bundle of joy had arrived in the post for me last week.

A big thank-you to 'green tea and me' for organising the vintage sheet FQ swap.

I am bursting to get started on my vintage sheet quilt. I have been given a few tips recently so I might even be able to pull it off. Unfortunately quilt making is way down the bottom of my 'to do' list.

But look at my new goodies. So lovely. Maybe I have one your sheets?

Where you involved? What are you making? Oh how I love secret parcels in the post!

Vintage sheet FQ swap

This morning I pulled out all of my vintage sheets to see which ones I could part with.

I am very excited to be part of the second 'vintage sheet FQ swap' being hosted by Green Tea and Red Nails.



I dusted off my rarely used cutting mat to cut my fat quarters.



I have ended up with seven fat quarters to go in the post this afternoon. I had picked out at least five more, but in the end I just wasn't ready to cut them up.

Miss Moo Moo and I are keeping a quiet day here today. We've done a couple of loads of washing, had friends for tea and pikelets and easy fettuccine carbonara is planned for dinner.

Would it be a bad thing if we curled up under the blanket to watch this movie before picking Spunky Monkey up from school?
