I must love red

Lots of sewing stuff is on the go... I collected my quilts from Chris on Tuesday so now I have 4 kid's quilts and my Scrapbuster quilt to bind. I have been sewing blocks for swaps that are due this month and I have pinned together a top for Linus and just generally been busy pinning and cutting.

Lately, I've noticed that the last few things I'd purchased were red.

Red welly boots for DS1

Red teapot because my white one got chipped...

That made me look at the red things around me.
The wooden heart hanging over my side of the bed (a blue one on DH's side - both bought at our local quilt guild's show last year even though I already had a red one from the lady who makes them, but they are lovely so i couldn't help myself LOL)

The red, white and blue quilt I made that lies on our bed, sometimes straight and neat, sometimes in a heap
(The red ran in this quilt - so I don't always love red!!)

Then around me, red things everywhere:
The view out of the church door on Sunday...

And the postman who still has not delivered my "Bag o' Stuff"...

One of the nicest things about living on the farm is the post van, I just think it's so charming, probably costs Royal Mail an arm and a leg, but it's lovely to see the little van especially when there's interesting post :O)


This afternoon we went Blackberrying again. Jam and pies coming up LOL


Oh, and while I was out merrily picking blackberries DH put up more scaffolding so to use the washing machine or get to the freezer shall be very interesting - luckily all my sewing stuff is pretty much out of there now.

Unluckily I can't remember where I put most of it....
