WIPW - New Beginnings

Work In Progress Wednesday. I have to hurry up and post before Wednesday turns into Thursday here in Tokyo!

What progress have I to report today?

Well, I have been busy writing up blog reports from the quilt show in Tokyo Dome. Before that I completed the Cathedral Windows bag and the navy/pink crazy quilt block.

With those projects out of the way, I decided to tidy up my work space, put thread and fabric back into their boxes.

While I was rummaging in the fabric stash, I pulled out these pieces for the next
Crazy for Crazy
block.
I will use purple as the accent color.

HINA
Girls Festival is in less than a month's time and it is time to display the Hina dolls. That also means that I needed to make three more ornaments, just as I do every year.
This time I made, a butterfly, a decorative Japanese hairpin and a macaroon (girls love sweets?).

My next job is to add them to the mobile

These are cute ornaments, and a mobile is such a great way to showcase them!
