This month was my "turn" for our quilt friendship meeting. I asked all the girls to make me a block using 3 1/2 inch squares of all different fabrics to make a scrap quilt. Here are a few but there is enough to make a single size quilt. I have my stash to raid yet so I hope to make a double size quilt... eventually!

I am doing another jewellery course and this is our first class piece - a 3D fish - and more cute in person than in the photo!

I was show by a friend in the weekend how to make felted balls - (they are about 2 cm diameter) I think they are meant to be used as beads - but I just like them to look at, although I have to hide them from my cats as they love the wool!!
