I PUT IN A ZIP AND PIPING.

I didn't quite get the blogging thing until last night I was working on my weekender (working sounds like its a chore and it really isn't) when I accomplished a zip and piping. I skipped to my husband brimming over with pride and by the look on his face he didn't quite get it. So I spoke of my zip faster and with more excitement and used lots of arm waving and still a blank expression.

So to the blogging world. I put in a zip.


 And piping.


I have a fear of zips which is inherited from my Mum she has passed it on and fills me with dread every time the idea comes in to my head. I think a few zippy pouches and hopefully this will be overcome.
 
 
Now I have that out of the way. I've been so busy on a Dinosaur quilt and it is now finished and wrapping itself around the birthday boy.


 
That is not the birthday boy, but my lovely husband, aka the quilt stand.
 
I still need to work on the photography but it'll come I felt very pleased with myself when I took a photo of the weekender mid project. I'm loving working on the weekender its giving me loads of confidence on following a pattern and this week I will be thinking of little girls clothes, maybe following a pattern.
