Proms, New Bags & Crazy Quilting

This week has been a bit manic!  Do you have times when your creativity lulls then comes back with a vengeance but at completely the wrong time?!  This week I have been preparing for upcoming holidays and as all mums will know that involves unbelievable amounts of washing and ironing, small child's junior prom, creating new designs and discovering a new technique, phew!!  So here are some pictures to illustrate.

First of all my baby going to her prom with her friend, oh so grown up! My baby is one in dotty dress...

Secondly new bag a different take on my teeny bag, slightly bigger and quilted,

Lastly my new technique that I am now really enjoying, I knew there was a patchwork artist in me, she just took some finding.  So here is my first attempt at crazy quilting, I knew those bits would come in useful for something!  It does need another little iron though, linen is lovely but it creases like mad.

I have discovered this ladies work over at Patchwork Pottery and am loving it, any patchwork lovers out there I can guarantee will become hooked looking at this ladies flickr pictures!
