Since photographing Robin, I went on and made Batman, and have just finished turning the dynamic duo into a cushion - woo hoo! Photos to come tomorrow.
The paper-pieced patterns, freebees, are fantastic, the only unpicking I did was due to my stingy cutting, and even using dark grey Sketch flannel caused no problems.
I will go into a bit more detail with the grand reveal tomorrow; I am going to rest my bunged up head for now, I have one of those colds that makes your teeth ache and lips split; still no more waiting at the school gate for a while, and I do not need to leave the house until Monday!
The outlaws are popping round in the morning, then all I have to do is finish the 7 table mats, wrap a few straggling presents and relax.
I have abandoned the basting plan, but hexies have been cut and if the urge takes me, I have something to keep my fingers occupied with, should I tire of eating chocolates, (like that will ever happen!).
You could always put the kids on a rota for chocolate feeding and they can pop yummy morsels into your mouth for you while your hands are busy basting ;-)
