I still have a lot to learn about how to get my blog do what I want it to and need to sit down and take the time. It was nice just now looking over my past posts I had forgotten all about making my maritime shorts over the summer, it is hard to think about the summer at the moment being in the depths of winter. However today is looking sunny and feeling a bit spring like.
In my little sewing world I have being enjoying my making and recently thanks to Instagram I have discovered the world of Swaps.
My first swap I got involved in was the #igminiquiltswap run by @curlyboy.
I was excited about being involved but kind of overwhelmed as well.
I recieved the most amazing mini from Kathryn @kathryn_a_j which came all the way from Australia no less it really is beautiful.
The quilting is just gorgeous and and fabric I just love.
Here is my creation 
Spot the photo bomb from Yoda.
I can't believe I cannot find I finished picture of the mini, must have a good search I'm sure I have one.
The Fabric is Daydream by Kate Spain
Pattern Ziggurat Mini by Nightingale quilts
I really enjoyed being part of the swap, speaking to other people and challenging myself as a new quilter.
