I did a bit more of the Sunflower Farm quilt but I wasn't really serious about it because I'll be sewing it at retreat this weekend. Oh! Tomorrow in fact! Yeah! Judy and I are going to Ballarat to do some sewing in an Airbnb and it's going to be fun!
Some threads don't blanket stitch as nicely as others and I don't know why. I did pull the loose loops through to the back so it doesn't look messy but it's annoying! I changed my needle and turned the thread on the spool in case that was the problem but it just kept looping.
I've stuck all the letters onto my Easter bunting. I might sew some at retreat. Maybe.
One of my son's friend's is having a baby girl in a couple of weeks so I decided to quilt this lovely panel for her. I wanted a heart quilting design but the ones I had were too basic so I used the blossom design that I used on Barb's quilt because of the flower in the panda's hair. I'll have to look for a nice heart design sometime because they're always useful designs.

I didn't get off to a good start. I quilted my finger. The same finger I quilted while I was making Gail's quilt! Ouch! I didn't get blood on the quilt though!!
I've also been painting my walk in wardrobe. The contents of the wardrobe are currently strewn around my son's old bedroom which also needs decorating so I have to get a move on. I hope to do last minute painting tomorrow morning before I pack up the car (with things I haven't packed yet!) and go away for the weekend!
