I have a few baby quilts to make over the next few months and when I visited the quilt shop in Cochrane earlier this this week this is what I bought. Bright and cheery and in my eyes suitable for either boy or girl. As many of you know I have great difficulty with girly colours so I guess I always seem to veer to the boys colours. Never fear I promise I will look for some more girly colours too! I intend doing something with HSTs (half square triangles for those not quilty minded)
We went for a short drive this afternoon down by the river, a few folks were out enjoying the trails, a photographer capturing Yamnuska and a couple of fishermen drifting in their boat downstream - no wildlife! As we sat enjoying our afternoon coffee we could see the storm clouds building up to the west. By 4.00pm we called it a day and returned home just as the rain came on.
I decided to make a huge pot of warming soup for dinner - sweet potato with cumin and ginger. Hearty and warming, it was delicious. Lamb chops, green beans, mushrooms and garlic potatoes followed, all rounded off with a lovely glass of wine. I did sneak some sticky toffee pudding and icecream to complete the meal.
If I don't fall asleep I may just do some stitching tonight using some of these fabrics for my next quilt. Have a great week folks, I hope all my friends at quilting class have made a start to their BOM (block of the month) or at least had a look at it. It will soon be time for the next one! Happy stitching.

good variety of fabrics here, I am the opposite to you when it comes to fabrics, so many of mine seem to be more suitable for females rather then males.have told myself no more florals but sometimes I just cannot resist.
Your dinner sounded delicious, the time for soup making is rapidly approaching here too, nothing like a home made soup is there
