Three weeks have gone by.........

....since Hayley came to stay.  We've done a lot of fun things together including making this quilt for her bff 's baby brother this weekend. 
  
Hayley had fun in my stash finding blocks from a cobblestone swap I'd been in and a Noah's Ark panel.
She decided where she wanted the colours to go and joined the blocks into rows and then I sewed the rows together.
Then she pinned the sandwich and did a fair bit of nice straight quilting. Finally she hand stitched some of the binding down so neatly and now Max's quilt is ready to give to him tomorrow after school.
I'm so proud of her work. Well done Hayley

O my! I cannot decide which is more lovely - the beautiful young lady or that drop dead gorgeous new quilt!

Looks like she is taking her perfection of work after her Grandmaw!
