Little Polly-Anna ...

I have a couple of pics this week  ... 

one of a bag I made .. the fabrics are very vibrant and rather bright although the photo really does not show it in all its glory ..... I will possibly give it to mummy for Polly-Anna ... this is not the great grandbaby girl's name ... it is just something I am calling her until the parents find a name for her ... and I kind of like it .. it is certainly growing on me ... and ... if her dad knew I was calling her this he would possibly disown me ... lol ... 

but ... I no care ... 

and here is a pic of the quilt I will be making for her ... This is my final decision and the fabric has been ordered ... I have the small bits for the girls and the windows ... the sun and the birdies etc .. and the door and roof ... I am just waiting for the walls and sky to arrive ... then it is on with the show ... I have until February to have this one finished ... and I do want it done before Polly Anna is born .. 

The pattern is called ... Our House ... by Toni Alexander of Me and My Red Boots .. 

you can find her patterns HERE ....

Although I have been struggling over the past few months I do feel like I have turned a corner ... and it is a positive one too ... I am feeling stronger and healthier than I have for years really ... it is all a little hard to get my head around at times but I do know I am on the improve ... and that I did not realise just how ill I had become ... but it did take a long time to get ill and I dare say it will take awhile also before I am back to full steam, but,  I am looking forward to the coming year ... with the birth of another babe ... and with that comes the making of another quilt .. 

And oh course there are all the other quilts that are still waiting to either be started or to be finished ... and the children are all very patient with their old nan ... I am just thankful that I have the opportunity to make them ... 

I hope everyone has a safe ... healthy and happy Christmas ...
filled with much love and fabulous memories ... 

 Merry Christmas everyone !!!!
