A new baby grand-daughter

No don't panic - not for me :o)

But my sister's new partner Dave is slightly older than her and this week his son and daughter-in-law gave their little 4 year old boy Ben a brand new baby sister - Erica

I can't believe that my sister at almost 44 is a step-granny to two littlies

However never one to pass by the opportunity to start a new project I dug out a lovely cotton flowered skirt I'd picked up in a charity shop a few weeks ago and started cutting it up to make some flying geese with a white-on-white I bought whilst away last weekend

In totally predictable fashion what will I do with these geese but turn them into sawtooth stars for a baby quilt for little Erica

So that's what I'll be working on this weekend

I am always amazed at the new projects you get started and finished in such a short amount of time. Looking forward to seeing the baby quilt develop!
