That's really lovely Lowena the sashing really makes it.
It was a jelly roll and BOM instructions by Pam & Nicky Lintott that really got me started on quilting.
Life's too short for ironing.

 Thank you girls, :D :D 2p I'll try to sneak it on there when he's at the chiropractor this afternoon, but doubt it'll last long before it's folded up and put neatly on the lower shelf of a table nearby  :D

Turn the heating off, then he'll appreciate it!

It is beautiful.   0_0
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Unfortunately, he's someone who never feels the cold  :( He's just gone out, so I'm about to sneak it onto the edge of the sofa  :D :D

It's much too nice to be folded away somewhere - it deserves pride of place. :loveit:

It is on the sofa. I did take a photo but it wouldn't accept it as an attachment ( despite the fact it was exactly the same as the other photos I took today ) I'll use it tonight when I watch tv
