May Progress by Kath

It is a long weekend here and I am making the most if it. Happy Birthday to the Queen. So my Queens Birthday stitching is going like this..... some finishes.... SKoW, My Favourite Things Quilt....

So that is where I am at with my blocks right now. I have fabrics, pattern book and light box on the dining room table as I write tracing off and cutting more to stitch while I watch a bit of tv in the evenings. I am really hoping to catch up this month. Famous last words eh???
I also made this little pillow as part of Anna's birthday present..... it is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination, but it is cute!
Anna misses Zues quite a bit so I thought this wee pillow might help her a bit. My first prairie points!
Well to all of those enjoying a break over the weekend, I hope you all have some stitchy time to fill in the days.
Bye for now
Kath
