Been a while

I had been holding out to post until I had my new camera, but as yet I'm still waiting.

I will post pictures when I can of my latest finishes.  These include: Voodoo Boy, Teresa Wentzler's Sun Dragon
and Celestial Sun Fob, and Dragon Dreams Moon Dragon 
and Celestial Moon Fob.
  Not a bad start to the year even if I do say so myself.

I have also attended Day 2 ofa quilting class in Weedon.  I was really impressed with the blocks I completed for Day 1. A Card trick, and a Jacob's Ladder. I will be turning these into a table cloth for our new lounge coffee table.  Just need to find some fabric to border it with.  But for Day 2 we designed a Dresden Plate block from graph paper to create the paper templates.  I'm not overly impressed with this, so may just be linger in the WIP box.  I have booked on a third day, I'm hoping to book more then as well.

I did join Slimming World, and so far I have lost 13lbs.  YAY me!  So pleased with myself and so far I'm not finding it too difficult, hopefully today I'll make the stone mark.
