A Purple Gem that looks pink to me..

I'm really pleased with this dahlia, it's called Purple Gem. I can see that the flower bud looks purple-ish but the open flower looks decidedly pink to me. Anyway, whatever it's called, I like it!

A girl can never have enough bunting!

I had some Amy Butler charms left and I love their impact all together. I decided that it was either quilt or bunting, and bunting won. Probably something to do with the fact that it's quicker to make, I still haven't finished the last quilt yet, and I needed some instant sewing therapy!

Anyway I reckon a girl can never have enough bunting.

Anyone for waitress service?

I finally finished my latest apron. I now have one for christmas, one wintry one, and one summery version!
 A 'boy' version has now been requested too so I will have to think on that one.
I love the Amy Butler fabrics that came in a charm pack (used for the petals), and they just happen to match in rather well with some lovely lanterns that I found on a trip to Totnes yesterday..
