Last night I worked on the third block of Katy's Foundation Paper Piecing For The Terrified, and I think I did OK...
I wasn't consciously planning on a square in the middle, which is fortuitous really, because it isn't, but it was fun none-the less!
Then this morning, after a stint reading at school, I made a teacup to go with Ceri's Teapot for her February Brit Bee wall hanging. I used Leila's pattern, scaled it down a bit so that it was smaller than the teapot and left out the beautiful heart from the original as the pieces came out so teeny tiny small I didn't want to push my luck.
Hope these meet with your approval Ms Feb.
Although not paper pieced, I then spent this evening making a couple of dancing girls for Judith and Sarah's Bee Blessed which I will show you tomorrow.
But that's not all! I got mail. My brilliant winnings from Isisjem's Jan; a Melody Miller/Keyka Lou wristlet with a tale to tell, some great key fob hardware, and maybe some chocolate... there is photographic evidence, but I can't find it anywhere now.
Thank you Jan, I know this was not the simple giveaway you were hoping for, but it turned out beautifully. Aren't I a lucky duck!
You are a lucky duck, and your FPP blocks look fabulous!
