June blocks from Sue S

June blocks

Elfin Sleigh

Santa's boots
I've had the flu or a cold or a mixture of both, still not a 100% but I have finally finished last months blocks and already started this months. Sitting under a quilt watching TV is a good way to look after myself. I have also traced the Christmas angel in 3 different sizes to make small pillows as on page 32. They are being stitched in variegated yellow stranded cotton and made into pillows for Lily for Christmas.
