I DID IT!

Yes, I have committed to buying a brand new Bernina 350 PE with leg lift. Get the chills just thinking about it, partly due to the guilt for spending so much on it, but also the lovely projects I will be able to complete with it! More reports once it arrives in a few days time.

In the meantime, caught up on some handwork I have been meaning to do. Stitched together the doll panels for M and her friend (pretty sloppy work but I was under dourest, by the demands of two 5 year olds, they don't seem to care), as well as some paper piecing hexie flowers (thanks to Y for some pink scraps from her bin).

 Also selected my fabrics for the Quilt Around the World which Y convinced me to try out. Since I'm not fabulous at matching up fabrics, took the easy way and chose the Nest collection from Tula Pink as my final 8. Like the color scheme, except not sure about the Teal colored piece at the end. It kinda looks disconnected from the rest?
