But first one of those dreaded U.F.O'S has bitten the dust.
Yep, Sue has had success...
"Going through boxes when I was trying to do my "Tidy and chuck" (which I still intend to finish) I found things I had forgotten all about. The three panels in this quilt for instance.
I don't know just what I had in mind for the panels when I made them, and I think the fabric originally intended to finish it off went to another project. But I found some fabrics in another box to finish it. I have plenty of boxes with plenty of fabric.
Now on with the next U F O"
GUESS WHO UPDATE: 26th April. The competition has closed and we have a winner.
Janice matched a photo to each name correctly and has won her choice of 2 fatquarters from Kimz Sewing and Patchwork, Congratulations Janice.
We also got 2 late entries last night from Karen that I'm including here, Karen's story is a bit of a hoot.
This cutie is none other than Betty
Karen's Story:
"Okay - so I am in the middle - with what some would say is a fancy dress
costume on.
I will have to correct you - it was my pink silky negligee. Yes, my
parents would let me walk around everywhere with that over my normal
clothes.
This phase of my life only lasted for TWO years. I often think about that
negligee, who owned it before me and what were my parents thinking!"
Guess Who? competition. Rules (really? rules?) anyhoo, same as the Guess Who's sewing room, except that multiple pics will be entered as singles, that is, no connecting of the pics.....heheheh.... The competition will run for a couple of weeks, providing of course there is a continuance of pics arriving. There will be a prize for the first totally correct answers to hit my e-mail or phone, they are all date:time stamped so an easy fix.

"Cute, wasn’t I??
The dress was pink with large black sequins. I helped mum sew on some of the beads and sequins. It was for my ballet school’s end of year show. Can’t remember what the dance was about but I wasn’t in ballet shoes in the photo.
The hat was made of cardboard and stitched together then painted with glossy house paint to match the costume with more sequins probably glued on."
