The Simple Life and SSCS

I spent some time at my machine over the weekend sewing block borders for The Simple Life. Sewing borders on is one of my least favourite activities but they turned out okay.......

Very excited that Chooky and Googy Girl have teamed up to bring us the Secret Santa Christmas Swap for 2013. I know who my partner is now, so my thinking cap is on!

I'm planning a trip to Quiltsmith in a couple of weeks so I'm very busy making a shopping list! Top priority is backing for Floral Beauty......and a new needleturn project.
