hedge hogs and bunnies

 I had a great day visiting family yesterday and eating hot chips at the beach with Oma, Opa and Mum (forgot to get photos from mum so none to share of the day) I came home with this gorgeous fabric from my cousin lil. I couldnt resist cutting straight into it!

I was going to turn it into curtains but in the end decided to make it into a quilt. 

Its a simple whole cloth quilt so I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to practice machine stippling. I did it while the Apple Blossom children were here so with the distractions its far from perfect but they enjoyed watching and with the white on white stitching mistakes don't show up too bad

Ive begun stitching on the binding although I haven't actually finished all the quilting. I'm impatient, I can never resist binding a half finished quilt!

 It looks sweet on a little bed and is perfect weight for springtime naps on the warm days to come

 the weather has been so gloriously warm, today we enjoyed short sleeves (and I enjoyed seeing them in their adorable check shirts)

lemonade anyone?
