Thanks, Mdm Samm for organising a wonderful blog hop, and Jane for being the cheerleader!
I chose this delightful pattern by Debbie Martinez!
I made it into a dust cover for my yarn basket, and I love it!
Sewing the binding for this dust cover is, well, another first for me. I did quilt lessons and have almost, yes almost, completed one baby blanket, minus the binding that is. So this is really my first attempt.
