Look who I picked up by the side of the road...

...it's Headless Hattie!

She and her companion were no longer a good fit. But Hattie and I have heaps in common- same height, same shape...

...and she's a singer, like me! 

The Beehive's Busiest Sea Ever!

The stellar members of the Beehive quiltting bee have really excelled themselves in making blocks for the Bug's Busy Sea at Night quilt.

The Beehivers sent so many extra blocks that I'm able to add a whole extra row, making a generous king-single size, which will give the Bug room to grow.

I'd love to show you a completed top, but I've run out of Kona Nightfall for my sashing! Stay tuned...

Miss Brown Inspects the Spring Plantings.

The patch on the left is the Bug's. He chose broccoli ("Because I love broccoli"), "beans that when you open them up they have peas inside" (I interpreted this as beans, but we've since established that he meant peas), a green capsicum (his favourite colour) and a strawberry (the only food he's ever eaten to the point of vomiting, so hopefully we won't have a bumber crop!). 

I chose a cherry tomato, zucchini, basil and a red capsicum (my favourite colour). Actually the capsicums are identical plants, we will just pick them when they are the colours we like!
