paper piecing and a valentine

i have been doing a little bit of paper piecing over this past few days i was going to use one or two on my mouthy stitches pouch ...............but i am staying with my bunting one as i have had such a poor response (non) from my partner i have only seen one post from her over the whole swap:((( maybe she did them and i just never saw them  !!

i love this pair i did my paper piecing from here http://sotakhandmade.blogspot.com/2012/01/foundation-paper-piecing.html linking to tamiko for the template !!

these 4 are going to be a cushion (pillow )for the sofa never done any fussy cutting have hardly got anything to fussy cut but i am sure i will soon get some :)))) susan has been doing some brilliant bird blocks wade through the chocolate and you find them :)))) http://canadianabroad-susan.blogspot.com/2012/01/if-i-only-had-brain.html



this is just a little pinwheel paper pieced !!

now to the valentine  you might know Lynda  my friend is from the U.SA and has married a scotsman friend of ours well she was saying the other day about how it is celebrated in the states and i know as i have been married to an american and lived there so i have made her a little quilt either to hang or put on her coffee table ,i have used a few red white and blue charms that i had .actually she brought them back for me i had quite a bit of stuff ordered and sent to her daughters house for when she was over sorting out her visa !!

  1. LINDA!!!!! Oh my gosh you have been busy!! I am so sorry I haven't checked in sooner. I haven't had much time as I've been working a ton of hours, and then trying to keep up with all the commenting on the Mouthy Stitches Swap has left me little time for anything else. Your blocks are beautiful and your pouches...OMG!! YOU ROCK!! They are GREAT!! And I am SOOO happy for your weight loss!! You have to be incredibly proud of everything you have been doing. I am not lying when I tell you I am so very impressed with all of it!! YOU GO GIRL!! XOXOXOOOOOO
