This is the Miniature Booty quilt that I made Toni (a-la Ricky Tims' Convergence Quilts).
I put far too much chocolate in the parcel and so it weighed a ton. Because of this fact, I stupidly sent it surface mail and it sadly took forever to arrive. Thankfully it finally has and so now I can show it.
Unfortunately due to DH getting a move on with the renovations all creative sewing has pretty much ground to a halt! We are like the Higgledy Piggledy pigs, living in a higgledy piggledy house! (See, I read far too many children's books!)
And mummy pig is right "it's not a muddle! It is a pigsty" LOL
We have an almost completed bathroom next to an old kitchen.
(Before tiling above and after tiling below!)
We also have a work in progress utility room next to a stripped bedroom and nowhere to put anything!!!!
Apparently a new sewing room will be my reward for living like a Higgeldy Piggeldy Pig LOL

Once hubby is all done the renovations, you are going to live in a palace!!
What a cute book! I haven't read that one.
Thank you again Karol-Ann, the chocolate is very much appreciated and hiding from my girls (I did share a little with them :)
Be patient, it'll all come together. I too am bathroomless, lucky we have a spare shower downstairs but in cramped quarters. I'll post a pic of the state ours is in tomorrow :-)
Ooooo...a new sewing room would go a long way toward making one feel better about the mess!
Your swap quilt is lovely -- and the backing fabric is, too.
You have my deepest sympathy - living through a home remodel has to be one of the most stressful times of all.
LOL, I keep writing down the titles of books you post about! Cute picture of DS2 hiding in the bath.
Very cute quilt!!
Living in a house that’s being remodelled takes a lot of patience and chocolate!!
I would love to have a sewing room. All the sewing clutter is in my little design studio! Imagine all the dust I discover on my computer-screens... LOL!
DIY and renovations are so tough...it will be well worth it when it is done...just think of all the blogging fodder you will have with the before and after pictures! :o)
Yes at last we get to see what you made out of the pirate fabric, it is great.
But what a great reward it will be!
Love the new bathroom - looks like you are making great progress on the renovations!!A new sewing room sounds like heaven!
Living with renovation is such a joy!!!
