It's Good To Have Finishes.

It's  been good to get some more finishes and the first quilt is one that I  made from 3 different sets of UFO blocks. 
The next 3 quilt tops were made and donated by Wendy Evans from Geelong.  She also included binding and backing for the tops which made them very easy to finish.

I've also been busy knitting baby's jackets and booties. 
I also finished another SB sized crocheted blanket as well as joining 4 smaller crocheted blankets together to make one larger ones.
Now that the slightly warmer weather has arrived it's been more comfortable pin basting quilt tops on the deck and I have a few more ready to quilt so I plan on getting more quilts finished soon.
Hugs, Jan Mac xx
