It is all hand sewn and made from Kaffe Fassett fabrics sent to me by my sister. All i have left to do now is back and quilt it, oh and find the fabric to back it!
What of Jake's quilt, well....., the fabrics are still in a bag waiting to be cut and sewn together, this i will do over the holidays and IT WILL be ready for him to take back to school in September!! This week is a time of getting things ready for the trip up to school and Jake coming home with all his 'stuff' then finding homes for everything, not easy when storage is not sufficient for the two of us and the dog!! On Thursday i begin the journey up north, the first part is to York to stay with a friend who is also collecting her son (who boards in York) from school on Friday, out for a nice
meal Thursday evening then Friday morning after an hours drive traffic permitting i should get to school in time to load up the car before a picnic followed by assembly, a trip to the uniform shop, bid a fond farewell to the houseparents (who were like parents to us as well!!) and matron and begin the long journey home. If we leave school at round 4.30pm we should get home by 11pm. The plus point is that we have 9 weeks together :-)). During that time we are going to begin learning Latin!! Jake will polish his knitting skills and learn to bake and cook simple meals all of this at his request i might add. Also i want to make a new bag to use over the summer............
