Kris's birthday

It's number 2 son's birthday today - 32 - blinkin' 'eck, that makes me feel old!!!!    Just thought I would share that with you!
I crocheted these little chicks for my friend Lesley's grandchildren.   They were covering two little cadbury's caramel eggs.  
The lady in the pic (I use the term loosely!) is my bezzie mate Lesley, she wot lunches wiv me on a Fursdee........    That's her before and after the apple pie!   We wanted it warmed up but it came cold so took it back and the chap said "you want it hotter?"  Hot would have been good never mind hotter!!!!  We laughed.............
I have signed up for a few challenges on the PaperPlay Forum - atc and tag swaps.    Haven't done an atc for absolutely ages.    Never done a tag one.    I feel a crafty Easter coming on.    I still have to finish Sam's puzzle piece too.    Busy busy busy!
Off to plan now - actually that's a little fibby - off to watch White Heat!
Thanks for taking a peek at my little chicks.     SORRY LESLEY !!!!!!

Quilt for Lesley - my friend wot lunches!

This quilt was made for my bezzie bezzie mate, Lesley.   We have lunched every Thursday (almost) for the last 16 years... Just gave myself a bloomin' shock there!    I have never made her anything in all that time so I thought I would make up for it last Christmas!   It turned out quite big and I was really pleased with it.  She rang me on Xmas day and said she cried..... exactly the response I expected!!!
I have the main fabric in pink and purple.   I think it would make a very pretty baby quilt.  The fabric is a 20 strip jelly roll from Fabric Land and the larger border is four fat quarters of the same fabric cut into 6 inch strips.    The binding is done from what was left over.
Short post tonight cos we have had a bit of an episode.   DS1 came in having lost his iPhone - he had it on the bus.    Really upset.     DH and he got in DH's van and chased the bus but of course it wasn't there, neither were the two little sh*tes who were sitting near him........     It's not the phone so much as what's on it.  
Right it's getting late, Spurs have just scored (so DH a bit happier now) and I still have to get my face off!  
Thanks for stopping by.
