A new craft

As the summer holidays are here I thought I'd take some time to try something new. A new craft obviously. I've always wanted to make a partchwork quilt, and now is the time.

So my eldest and I went off for some supplies; we have a fantastic quilt shop in our local town.

We chose a jelly roll. I know nothing about quilting, so thought it might be the easiest start. Might be, might not...only time will tell.

Lots of beautiful strips of fabric in pinks, yellows, browns and blue (her favourite colour).

But firsts things first, we need to cut some background fabric into strips ready to sew...

We're not scared....

I'll keep you posted!
