Busy

These last 10 days have been so creatively busy!

 
There are lots of happy occassions to attend to this month, such as namedays, births, christenings and birthdays. So, I decided to devote some time and make presents instead of buying them. I've always been crafty, however, my postgraduate studies put me off for quite some time. So now....I'M BACK, full of ideas!
Beware scissors, glue, paper and fabric, for I have plans for you!


Today I will show you a playmat that I made for a colleague, who is about to give birth to a baby boy. I'm thinking that it will be perfect when the baby starts crawling or playing. 


It's also versitile and it can be used as a quilt for crispy evenings. I made it in my friends' favourite colour: light blue. 


It's my first attempt to make a quilt and it really troubled me. At least , I think I did rather well for a first time, if I may say so.
