Quilty Mail

I got two Quilty mails today....

One from the lovely Helen....who sent me

  • Emma's RR quilt for me to do my thing on....No pic of that...dont want to spoil it for Emma.
  • Some lovely scraps for the hexagons....
  • 10 cake layers from our recent swap...yum!!...my favourite is the flowers one on top!
  • some freeze paper which I have to ask Cass about so I can use it properly
  • and a lovely letter for me to read!


The other package contained the backing for MY quilt....I was deciding between the pink and blue or the green and brown.....I got the purple...


And also a metre of red that I just liked...Christmas-y maybe??

AJ I love the fabric you got for the backing for your quilt. Don't know how much help I'll be with the freezer paper, Helen probably knows more than me.

That is a fabulous floral! I'll have to ask Helen what it is! I bought some freezer paper a while ago - and now I want to use it, I can't find it anywhere!

Image
It has been a week two weeks since Aden's Octonauts party and I think I have recovered enough to post about it. Special thanks to my sister for gabbing my camera and my MIL and SIL for their cameras, as I didn't take any all day! Aden is a massive Octonauts fan! So when he didn't go for my initial plan of a 'Monsters' Party ( too scary Mummy!) we decided on Octonauts. I did a lot of Internet searching and looking at a lot of Pintrest posts to gather all my ideas together.  There was lots of party food including Octonaut Cupcakes. Cake toppers from Ebay  And a Kwazii cake as requested by the birthday boy! I totally forgot to put on the Octopus I had for his hat!! We also had yellow/green/blue jelly cups with turtles in them and smarties cookies. As well as regular party food and hot finger food for the adults.
