...that included cupcakes and Birthday cake: Our eldest turned 5!
It was slow, due to the flaring up of my spring allergies, but who cares, really?
:)
Two more Camelots, with a very special patch received from a fellow island-girl...
Sandra, it's the beach scene in pinks and yellows, and the patch is bottom centre towards the right! :)
Thank you soooo much, dear friend!
Also great to know is that Liz and a friend set up a Flickr group for Camelot. This will be a great place to discuss fabric selection and be inspired ( and encouraged as some of the block will take you to the limits of your sanity... breathe in- breathe out... I'm ok--- besides I only have 2 more to go... and I will resist the urge to start a new one until this one is done... Breathe...)
It was beautiful, the boys were handsome and Mama was happy in her new summer dress...
:)
What else would a girl want? ...perhaps some more time to squeeze in as many visits to the Bloggers' Quilt Festival as I can? There is just so much inspiration, and I still have quite a few to cover: 631 entries this Spring!
Hoping you are all having a great weekend,

Your Camelot blocks are gorgeous!! The piecing looks perfection. How fun to include a special piece of fabric from a friend :0) I do hope your allergies go away soon! The Wedding pictures are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your eldest. That's an important age for a little guy-- one hand's worth of fingers to hold up!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blocks, and your wedding photos look like you've recorded something out of a wonderful movie! I love how we share our lives with each other. It enriches our minds to see what our fellow quilters see and do.
Morning very cool the island patch. Clever girl to blend it in so well. Like a secret held in your hands. No wonder we all quilt.

In England all brides cross their fingers for a sunny day. If you get a sunny day for your wedding you are very lucky, it is just the luck of the draw, even in the summer.
