Well, what a year!

It began OK, with the birth of another great niece in the US who already had her quilt ready and waiting for her.

Then we headed off to Dubai for a fabulous birthday week staying with good friends and meeting up with other friends who were stopping over on their way back to the UK from Australia. Who knew that the following month Covid 19 would strike and we would all be locked down at home? My sewing changed pretty rapidly from pretty quilts, useful bags and pouches and interesting improv to masks and scrubs. That took up most of the early summer.

After that I pretty much concentrated on scrap quilts and special requests, such as the football quilt for my oldest grandson and a commission for a new baby whose mum liked my Mondrian quilt from the previous year. There are pics of all of these on the Gallery page for 2020.

There were several bags and pouches too. My favourite was the Flip Pocket Folio by Aneela Hoey. I made four different versions of that for each of my grandchildren and filled them with a mixture of stationery essentials and sweet treats for Christmas.
