She will be 60. She asked to NOT have a big party but to have a quiet family picnic. That should be fine, as long as it isn't too hot! Any way, I thought I would make her a quilt. Not a big one, just a lap size one. She would definately use it so it would be worth while. And dare I say it, it is one of my "to do list" things this year - to be nicer to her! It's awful I know but ever since she 'over stayed' her hospital visit time when William was born, I lost a lot of time for her. So I made up my mind to try and have more time for her, especially now that we have two of her grand children here!
Anyway, this is the fabric I have chosen for her.
It is a mixture of Denyse Schmidt Hope Valley and a couple of fat quarters I got as a bonus from an internet fabric order.
I just have to decide how to put it together. Something simple that I can do in 14 days!! Remember though I have just has a baby so time is limited!
Wish me luck!
