Productivity

I feel like I have had a very productive weekend.  On top of the DWR quilt that I mananged to get sewn down, I also put on a scrappy border around my HipBee quilt

This quilt is going to look amazing, thanks to the hard work of the girls in the bee, who produced such fabulous blocks for me

I also got this done today:
It's not huge, each block is 12" and it still needs a border.  It is for the daughter of a friend of Jenny - someone she worked with when she was doing weekends at Asda.  They have had a truly awful time recently.  I will aim to get it finished over the nice long weekend next weekend.

And finally, a job that I keep putting off because I thought it would be so time consuming: driving license and passport renewal

All together, it took me about half an hour!! Nothing like I thought it would.  However, I am now £92.50 poorer!!  (just think of all that fabric....)
