Just cutting and buying. Cutting this:
Forty-four 10″ squares. Not very exciting, is it. I didn’t think so either, but what it will become one day will be more interesting. These squares are on their way to the Northern Territory to my sister’s house. She is in charge of the craft activities for their local MOPS (Mothers of Preschool Children) group.

Now to wait for the 1st of March. If you want to join in, go here to sign up. I’m going to go and see if I can actually do some sewing now…. must practice my applique and quilting… must, must….
