A Crafty Weekend

I had a lovely weekend with a wonderful group of crafty girls last weekend, thanks Bianca, Sheridan, Belinda, Jade and Sophie.

I really felt I got a lot done this time sewing from morning until very, very late at night (not as late as this girl though).

I managed to get all but one of the tote bags for Lucy's party done.

An Oliver and S Ice Cream Top completed and I was so much happier with it this time as I had Sophie there giving me some tips. Unfortunately I made an 8 for Charlotte but she really needs a 10, I forgot I thought it ran a little small when I made Lucy's up. So I think I might give it to her friend Sophie and see if it fits her.

I also bound this lap quilt which is going to be a Christmas gift. I actually tied it when I quilted it (thanks Peta for that suggestion) and I loved doing it that way, very quick and easy)

I also made two adapted Miss Madeline dresses, as tops for Charlotte and Lucy but I forgot the elastic so they still need to be finished off.

Thanks again girls for a great weekend
