I popped into Ballarat Patchwork yesterday lunchtime, thinking I might work on a sort of a keepsake keeper in Christmas colours and I grabbed a couple of fat quarters. Well, I changed my mind a bit and made this little pocket. I did the stitchery last night and quilted it all in dmc thread and finished most of it off at lunchtime. And a pic of it opened up with some bits and pieces in the pocket.
Oh, so nice to do a quick little project! And I won something today - I'm not sure what yet :) but Jo Jo was running a giveaway and I won the second prize. Jo has such lovely things on her blog that I can't wait. Thanks Jo!
Matt's a finalist in the Business category for the local Environment Awards. The presentation is on tomorrow night. Wish him luck! I know he is my husband but he works so hard xx Maybe he will even let me take a pic of him all dressed up...
I just love this pic that 5 year old Kane has drawn. It is a very unique tiger with birthday candles on its back. The kids have been watching the doco "Tigers, Spies in the Jungle".
Have a great weekend!

What a cute pocket. Love the fabrics and am amazed at how quickly you put it together - very inspiring.
You need to give Kane some fabric crayons and use some of these drawings in a quilt!
Beautiful pocket!
