Perhaps it's because I can never sit still for very long.<br />Your quilt sounds as if it's going to be lovely. Alf would love a big quilt to wrap himself up in. He's a cold fish, and is always jamming himself up against the radiators during the winter months. Have a great week, friend.<br />Leanne xxLeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15617604296746784414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515007843975800463.post-21292350404390372072016-09-19T13:44:25.222+01:002016-09-19T13:44:25.222+01:00Thank you for the tip on sewing triangles.

I'm actually envious of the fact you can go and fold your laundry. Our washing machine died this week (it isn't even three years old), and we still haven't been able to get a repairman to return our call. In the meantime the pile of dirty laundry is growing at an alarming rate. kristieinbchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08620113214111945592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515007843975800463.post-48265780230044523012016-09-18T22:50:46.349+01:002016-09-18T22:50:46.349+01:00These colours are very pretty.

Normally I would be getting stuck into knitting a winter jumper but my bloody shoulder is still hurting so sewing it is for me. I have just sat for half an hour and drawn a log cabin design and coloured it in - that is how bored I am not knitting in the evenings! Have a great week.
