A quilt lesson with friends

Saturday was a great time out for me. I had some me time and a lesson from a great friend. I learnt to make or at least start a scrap basket lattice quilt.

It was super nice to have a day sewing with no mummy duties. DH your very lovely to give me some time off. The kids were well behaved as well.

I have wanted to make this quilt when I first saw it but its not for beginners. It requires lots of sewing and following instructions closely.

I raided my stash. I'm using 25 FQs of Rural Jardin by French General and a natural homespun as my background. I spent Friday cutting my material.

My mum and friend Meryl also joined in the fun. It was a great day. Fun had by all. Thanks Michelle. Your the best.
