Tin of sewing pins

I haven't posted in a while as I have been on holiday with hubby, we had a lovely time exploring a small country in the Northern hemisphere that is very green and hilly, but also very cold and wet.

 

So, in the absence of progress on my quilt, I thought I'd show you my very useful Alphonse Mucha Tin, containing my sewing pins, thimble and stitch cutter.  The tin once served, a different purpose; a container with yummy dark chocolate inside - a gift from my sister.

Squares

 My workstation, aka the kitchen table!  I do have a desk, but my computer takes up most of the space and when making quilts I need to spread out and this is the best flat surface.  I have decided to start a new blog especially for my textile work, you can still visit 'the library' through: www.thebuttonadventure.blogspot.com.
This is, what I thought was the finished quilt, however looking at it again, I realised it needs to be much bigger. So back to cutting out more squares. Thank goodness I bought more fabric at the quilt show.
