I came home broke, not yet unpacked my bits.<br />I made a bonnet 18 months ago and it was somewhere on the floor near the front but I couldn't see it.

What a fantastic project too - when you see something like that it makes it far more thought provoking than it just being a list of poor souls names - love the model by the way - I think the beard adds to the bonnet somehow :-) Thanks for your comment on my blog - 4 , not sure I dare take the chance and have another to see if it will get rid of my broodiness lol.Scented Sweetpeashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03836203205845306983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419544468759273678.post-5285644230428523532010-08-21T19:17:56.163+01:002010-08-21T19:17:56.163+01:00Thank you for taking a photo of my quilt and shari...Thank you for taking a photo of my quilt and sharing it here Gina :o)<br />Wish I could have seen Julie's quilt irl.
