Weekly Catch Up.

Now that I've donated all the finished gift quilts it's time to get busy making more.  I decided to work my way through a box of donated QAYG blocks and I plan to keep working on more QAYG quilts as they are easy to make when I don't need to find batting or backings and I love that they all look individual.

 I also finished off 3 baby jackets to donate to Peter Mac Cancer Centre to be sold in their shop which helps them to raise funds. I have so much baby wool that I will be knitting for a while and baby jackets sell well as gifts.

I also made 4 pillowcases which have some of  Jake's favourite things . I also made 6 burp cloths for the new baby but forgot to take photos. It's been a mixture of finishes this week and I'm still crocheting squares for blankets so there's no chance of getting bored. I asked for a photo of me with Jake for Mother's Day as I am usually behind the camera and I was thrilled to have this one taken in the park.
Have a great week everyone,
Hugs, Jan Mac

What a lovely photo of you with your delightful grandson! A proud happy Granny and a smiling Jake who obviously loves his Granny very much! Great QAYG quilts, the one with dramatic red blocks is particularly striking. Well done knitting jackets and making pillowcases and burp cloths. Goodness you never waste a moment.
