cupcake heaven

I decided to treat myself yesterday and went to Borders to buy the Crabapple cupcake book. Talk about YUM!! (I haven’t made any yet but they sound delicious! LOL)

and the book is just lovely to browse through! Hopefully this weekend I will be able to bake.

as well as designing and stitching my own patterns I also like to make other quilts where I can just read the instructions and sew. I mentioned before that Robyn and I are making a double wedding ring. Well I have started. so here is a photo of one of the melon arcs (does that sound weird?). I am hand piecing and so far enjoying it.

Wedding

so lots more to do but its a start!!

school holidays next week and lots of sleep ins!! or should I be getting up early to do lots of sewing? It will be a break anyway and if it rains all holidays I can keep warm inside and stitch away. It has rained very heavily over the last 2 days…just what we need.

Bye for now
