Livre Love And This Months Challenge

In the true spirit of craftiness I have decided to combine my Book Challenge project this month with one of my UFO projects.  It's one I need to get finished, and this will help me get it closer to that point


Fortuitously, this book dropped through my letterbox yesterday for me to review, and whilst flicking through I found this rather cute looking quilt.  
 I have a whole stack of solids and I don't want to piece anything massively complex, but I think it deserves something more than a wholecloth backing.  I have decided to enter it into the Quilt and Stitch Village show in Uttoxeter in April (barring any disasters with the quilting), as my other project isn't even close to getting started, and I need to make some swift progress.  

I will be reviewing Stitch Savvy next week if I get the time, on first look through there are some interesting projects, but now I need to spend a little time with it, and a glass of wine!

Happy Saturday Night

  2. I love yellow and gray together so I really like that photo in the book. It will be great to see how yours turns out. Do you review books for a living or do publishers send them to you because of your blog?
