Cheeky Little Monkey

My little monkey quilt for our friend's baby girl is ready to be delivered...


I phoned to check the spelling of her name for the label and learned that they had decorated her room in non-gender specific colours i.e. reds and creams, but I love that this little quilt/playmat... is very gender specific. I think for Mom's like me, who only have boys it's nice to make something pink once in a while!!

The back is beautiful soft flannel from the same range of fabric and the fabric is all (except the shocking pink) from my win on VickW's blog way back when. I made the label from a scrap piece of pink monkey fabric...


I do hope she likes it enough to use it, throw up on it etc etc - :-)


My Double Delight is back from the Longarmers. It could have been here months ago, but I guess not every one knows that you should never leave a message with my husband if you want me to get it :-)))


I still need to unpack it and to decide on the binding for it, but I can't wait as it will live on our bed as soon as it's done!


Yesterday we did an Easter Egg hunt with the boys in the garden. I love this photo of what looks like a strategy meeting :-)


And they liked the baskets I made them too!
