My First Quilt!

Okay so I finally managed to finish my first "quilt" which is tiny so is now a wall hanging :P  It's  32cm x 32cm and I used the mini charm packs from The Cotton Patch. I sketched loads of different designs until I finally settled on this one. I know it's not perfect and that it could be neater, the fabrics could be arranged better, etc etc but I like it :) The next one will be better (I hope :P).
P.S. it is a little wonky....adds to the character of it ;)

The Beauty of Cut Out + Keep

CO+K is one of my favourite craft websites ever. Incase you don't know it's an online community where you can post how-tos, versions and your own projects, there are boards, a blog and much much more - definately recommend you to check it out :) Anyway, this pencil roll up is based on the pencil roll up how-to from there :) ( http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/pencil_case_roll_up_2 )I made it for a friend using some fabric I had dyed myself and some lace :)
