Time to stop clowning around

Remember this post and this post about a top-secret project Di B and I were working on? It wouldn’t surprise me if you didn’t. After all it was back in the Dark Ages May.

We’ve left you in suspense far too long, (oh we do love to tease!). However we were waiting for a special event – the arrival of this little man.

Hamish belongs to our Assistant Minister, Dan,  and his wife Emily, and here he is lying on our secret project – a new quilt, a gift from all the St Mark’s Quilters.

So many hands stitched their love for Hamish, Dan, Emily, and their little girls Ashlyn and Rhianna into this quilt which is bordered by twelve applique teddy bears, each made by a different St Mark’s Quilter.

Di B and I merely put the blocks together and finished it off.
