ER! EXCUSE ME...

The cheek of it, really I ask you. Turned my back for one minute and look what happened 

Actually I suggested he go in my room because his computer desk is by the window and he would have blocked the light while I was sewing.

Talking of light, here's that jam jar with a battery night light in it.

Not a brilliant photo so when I get to finish the jar I'll try taking a better one.

The sewing of the garden throw took on a whole new meaning today. This is it with just the outside border to go.

And voila, this is it finished

I am pleased with the result but will difinitely be embroidering ' embrace imperfection' on it somewhere.  I now need to decide how to quilt it so that I can plan where to piece the backing. I don't want the quilting to look silly on the back by merging with the joining seam. At least I have enough batting so won't need to buy any. 

I've learnt a lot by making this, least of all, it's very difficult to keep everything straight and true.  Practice makes perfect I guess so it will be a very long time before I feel confident enough to use my extra special fabrics.
