Having been given a jelly roll and a quilting book for Christmas 2010, there is no excuse not to get on with quiltmaking.

Here's what happened next...

Good News! And .....oops!

The really lovely good news is that the baby twin boys were born yesterday, and everyone is well. Ahhh!

The less good news as far as the baby mats are concerned is twofold.

Firstly, the babies have been born in August, and the mat labels say July.

Secondly - and rather more catastrophically - it turns out that my neighbours are not L & A, but C & A and I have been calling the poor woman by a name similar to - but categorically not - hers.

Looks like I have some re-embroidery to get on with - but on the plus side, at least I found out now, and not  in a few days whilst sitting in their lounge cooing at their babies handing over the mats....how embarrassing would that be!

  1. Healthy babies are the best news. I'm sure once you fix the label those mats will be much appreciated.

    1. That's right, Joanna - and the labels didn't take too long to do. I finished them last night whilst watching the Olympic closing ceremony.

  2. Oh well, at least the errors can be fairly easily remedied. I'm sure the mats will be loved and well used by the babies.

    1. Didn't stop me grumbling about the next-doors, who were the ones who gave me the wrong name for our neighbour-in-common in the first place. Doesn't he listen? Honestly!

    1. Hey, Carolyn - thank you for dropping by! I'm glad I've taken a lot of photos of the mats - it's a bit sad to see them go, they've been a lot of fun to make!

    1. I hadn't when you left your comment, Lesley, but I have now!

      And the mats have been delivered to their new home this very lunchtime. :-)
