Elisabeth: “Hello, Blog, how are you?”<\/p>\n

Blog: “Lonely.”<\/p>\n

Elisabeth: “I know I haven’t been around much, but then I haven’t been crafting much either. My mum was here for her birthday last week which means I didn’t do much (except baking and eating cakes. Oh yes, cakes, as in baking three and eating two!). I’d like to show you a couple of things now, though.”<\/p>\n

Blog: “Great! What would you like to show me then?”<\/p>\n

Elisabeth: “First, I want to show you a gift I got from my sister Kristine. She crocheted this lovely bag and showed it to me on Skype. When I said how cute I thought it was she gave it to me. Fabulous, isn’t it? Sadly I don’t get to use it much as Little Miss Bossy-Boots has taken it and is using it all the time.”<\/p>\n

Blog: “That bag is lovely! What else did you want to show me?”<\/p>\n

Elisabeth: “I suddenly had the urge to do some embroidery. The bird was inspired by a drawing I did for Little Miss Bossy-Boots. I’m not sure what I’m going to make with these two embroideries but I’m sure I’ll think of something at some stage.”<\/p>\n

Blog: “Cute. How about turning one of them into a Kindle cover?”<\/p>\n

Elisabeth: “Good idea, Blog, I’ll see if I can find some fabrics to go with the bird. The last thing I want to show is a really fabulous book.<\/p>\n

You know how much I like Fat Quarterly<\/a>, don’t you? I mean, I’m going to their Retreat in London, I go on and on about Katy Jones<\/a> (bit of crush there?!)….. When I heard that they were writing a book I knew I was going to buy it and yesterday it arrived. I love it. Last year I bought some fat quarters and yardage of Echo by Lotta Jansdotter and I’ve been looking for a pattern to turn it into a quilt ever since. Well, I’ve found it.<\/p>\n

This is my all time favourite block. I’m sure nobody who knows me is surprised by the fact that I’ve fallen for a block that’s called Castle Wall (for those who don’t know me: I studied Medieval English Language and Literature) and it’s by John Q. Adams, aka Quilt Dad.<\/a><\/p>\n

Blog: ” I can see why you like Castle Wall. I’m sure it’ll look lovely in Echo.”<\/p>\n

Elisabeth: “I can’t wait to start but I have to finish some work stuff first. At least I have a project to take to the Sewing Retreat. Although how much sewing I will be doing I’m not sure but more about that later. See you very soon, my dear Blog!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
