Just when I needed some cheering up I got this parcel in the mail from Lesley, aka Moogsmum. And it helped! All of you who took the time to leave a note on my last post helped too, not that I loved to hear that many of you had crappy Mondays too, but it is such a relief to be reminded of the fact that you're not the only worn-out mum (+ a range of other not so flattering titles) in the world. Hope you are feeling alright today, and if you're not, just allow yourself to have a grumpy day!Lesley used her 7 year old daughter's drawing as base for this cheerful little quilt for Lucy locket's swap. I love the simple and fresh design! But I adore the wasps, they are brilliantly drawn and sewn, such great cooperation:
And the label in the back is also a masterpiece, Lesley even stitched my logo, thank you! 
And thank you for these goodies. The recycled home made felt by Monda will be used very soon and the blue fabric will go into one wave or too in one of the quilts I'm making for my little exhibition this Summer. Now I have a week left to make my quilt, tomorrow I hope to have some time to sit down and play with fabrics and decide which idea to work on...

WOW -that little quilt would sure cheer you up! I love the bees and the tree!
Well, it's Thursday tomorrow so the weekend will be upon us again soon!! Hope it's a good one!
I've been really looking forward to you receiving your mini quilt from Lesley as I already knew how lovely it was! Thank you for taking part in my swap. Lucy xx
I'm so pleased you like your mini-quilt!! I forgot to tell you that the reason all the 'z's are backwards is that Minx wrote them that way and I thought it was too cute to change it :)
I hope you have a lovely, happy weekend.
