I really have been sewing...

.. this is a kit a friend bought me for Christmas. Went together very easily but now I have to quilt it! It's not big so I should be  able to manage it

Some secret sewing..

... some more blocks that will eventually make a quilt as you go quilt. I have all 30 blocks sewn, the backing cut out and am thinking about the cutting of the wadding.This will be  a quilt for DH niece who turns 30 this year....

... and this is going to be  a ring cushion for when my eldest daughter gets married. The ribbon when attached will tie on the rings(of course) and I would like to just add a small butterfly amongst the roses. This is a free pattern from Jenny of elefantz and I really enjoyed sewing it. Thanks Jenny for sharing so freely.
Now I just have to get myself organised and finish all the above items.
