I think my Orbit quilt is a prime example of all things square; my beach bag is hexagon heaven, and my first few Marcelle Medallion borders have incorporated more equilateral triangles than I had ever attempted before. Today though, I made what has to be my most favourite, instantly gratifying, mini project, ever!
Now I can only, well, will only, be showing you this in progress photo for today, but it is finished, I promise you, (I have been smiling and squidging it since lunchtime). I am leaving the grand reveal until Tuesday, before 10am so as not to fall foul of those strict Le Challenge rules, so you might want to come back for that one, just saying!
I love a (non-wonky) log cabin, and a Liberty one to boot? Well it doesn't get much better than that does it?!!
Whilst I was cutting all those Medallion pieces yesterday, I couldn't stop thinking about using all those charm off-cuts, and before I had even got showered this morning, I was pulling the prints and planning this little beauty.
With a little diversion of the park and Tesco variety, and then lunch, I was all done by 2pm; just in time to have a sit outside in the sun... until an inevitable rain-shower!
***Edited to add - if you click here you can see it in its full beauty and maybe even win it!!!***
Lucy and Nat's joint online baby is looking like it will grow into a smashing credit to them both; have you linked up this month? I'm looking forward to next month's challenge already.
So that's the Easter holidays over and done with too; a pretty miserable fortnight really, but that seems to have been the same for most of the UK, so we'll just put it down the never-ending winter of 2013 and move on!
Tomorrow I will be posting my Stitch Tease reveal; I don't want to giveaway what I am up to on Tuesday, but please keep coming back, it's going to be a busy week xxx
