Seed sowing time.......

Hi there everyone, at last I can get an "H' added ........... some seed packets and tools stitched just in time for spring!  I'm looking forward to getting the real thing underway out in the garden, things are definitely starting to 'spring' into life around here quickly now.




There has been some awesome progress in the last couple of weeks, it amazes me how there are so many styles and colours appearing, I love the personal touches some have been adding to really make their quilt their own! 

Till next time, happy stitching,  Nicky
