Last weekend we went down to Dorset to stay with my parents while we caught up with friends and family. It was great to go down south and after so long (since Christmas!). David and I visited our sons and their families and went to a soft play centre near Chandlers Ford and 3 of the little ones enjoyed it and the youngest, Freddie slept through most of it! We gave Isobel (who recently celebrated her 1st birthday her present which included a little rabbit with a quilt and pillow.
Above is a photo of the birthday girl with her Dad, Alex.
Carly gave me a photo frame with a collection of photos for Mothers Day.
Back home again things have been busy back at work and now that it's Easter Weekend I ought to get busy on some stuff, including a quilt for Freddie. Got fabric now must start to get it sewn. It seems that half this long weekend has been taken up with working :o((. But never mind, the weather is set to be windy and rainy so I could get down to some sewing.
The past couple of weeks I've received postcards from the other four swappers in the quick mosaic theme. A lovely colourful selection of postcards and here's a photo of them here. I won't be taking part in another swap until June.
And finally, the chicken pincushion that I made a the recent Regional Day, but hadn't photographed until now. Doesn't it look sweet?

I like the idea of the quilt with matching rabbit, and love the chick pincushion, very cute.
