It has been more than a month since my last post. Very slack I know!!
I have been busy stitching during this time. I have almost completed 2 Christmas swap gifts, made 4 Quilt Aid blocks and stitched for my Stitching Angel partner.
Above are the gifts that I made for Jo. I thought it was very funny when I opened the email from Helen and it said that Jo was my partner. It was even more amusing because the weekend after that email I went to Hobart and stayed at Jo's house for 2 nights. I was so tempted to leave "Stitching Angel" messages around Jo's house but I thought that might have been a bit obvious...Below are the first 4 Quilt Aid blocks I have been working on. I am enjoying working on these blocks so much. They are all different and the fabric Sachet Potpourri is just beautiful. Thankyou so much for this idea Helen....I cant help but think of those women in Africa everytime I work on a block ....

Your blocks look wonderful (the quilt kit is in the cupboard and on my "next year" list)and I love the colours you've used for your stitching angel presents.
Your quilt aid blocks are beautiful Cathy.
Lucky you, your gifts are lovely...and your blocks Cathy, they are just so beautiful..
How fun you must have had it making angel gifts for Jo LOL.
I guess she got a big laugh when she discovered it.
Love your blocks. Beutiful fabrics.
Yes you sure have been busy ! All lovely .
I can jsut imagine you scheming and dreaming of leaving secret messages all though her house...........lol
We have missed u!! How fun would it have been for Jo to find those clues!! Love those blocks!!
It doesn't look like the stitching angel package that I sent to you has arrived! It is making a long journey but it should be there any day now! I tried to do some things that would be very different from what you might do yourself! I hope you like them! Will be checking in with you and will reveal my identity when the package arrives! The pieces that you have made for your swap partner are wonderful!
Great to have you back but I can see why you've been gone....such beautiful work...and all for good reason!! Jo will get a lovely surprise!
sugary hugs

It's good to see what you've been working while away from the computer. The blocks are truly delightful, they are very tempting!
