A Hug

Just in the nick of time I got this little quilt finished.  Jenny took it over to her friend to give to her daughter - and it also happens to be her birthday.  Apparantley she has been 'wearing' it all day






The little girl that it has gone to has lost her daddy recently, so I wanted to make it as a big hug for her.  It was made from scraps that I had and I finished it off with some more straight line quilting.

           

And what a difference a day or so makes.  On Sunday, I sat in the conservatory and had breakfast in the lovely sunshine.  Today (admitidley it was earlier) it was a lot chillier: but hey: the sun was still shining! (even if I was at work all day)
