I so love the details of this Letโs Play mini quilt, that I made last year. ๐๐งก๐
FYI: The series is still available (free from my website), if youโre inspired to play.

It was time for an update! ๐๐ฅฐ

I made a bunch of covered buttons, to play with, this week. ๐๐๐ฉท๐
I continue to get joy from seeing the series of Letโs Play mini quilts, I made last year.
Every month I hang a different one on my little hanger, to decorate this corner. ๐ฅฐ๐๐
FYI: The series is still available (free), if youโre inspired to play.
โฆBeginning to get the urge to add to the collection! ๐
Iโll put some thought into what colours to play with next. ๐ค

You can see Iโve been hand stitching with a variety of threads - all in pinks & blues. ๐ฉท๐
I keep the small container, in my stitching bowl, as a temporary place to keep the thread ends together.
How do you keep your hand stitching tools together?

Have you wondered why Iโve included a hot air
balloon in the quilt, thatโs full of treasures Iโve saved, over decades & favourite blocks Iโve designed over that time?
WellโฆI explain all that in last weekโs video. ๐
This week, I mostly finish it! ๐๐ชก๐งต๐
Turning soutache trim into hot air balloon rope.
Being creative with my stitches! ๐๐ชก๐งต
This is my mother-of-pearl belt buckle. ๐
Itโs what Iโve added in this weekโs video.
Have you seen how much progress Iโve made? ๐๐ฅฐ
