my (mum's) creative space. . .


Little bits of fabric
Sewn into a quilt
Form a warm and loving blanket
From which memories are built
And when you seek warmth and comfort
In the quiet of the night
It will keep you warm and snug
Until the morning's light

A special quilt for The Little One, made by her Nanny.
A gift for her second birthday. For her big girl bed.
. . . and a wee little one for her the dolls bed too.
Something to treasure.

Thanks Nanny. Thanks Mum.
We love it (and you!).

    Just so beautiful! Every single fabric by itself and then all together as well. I thought I'd spied the green somewhere before. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. X

    How absolutely gorgeous. There's some fabric from your blog header in there! Is it a significant print for you? Part of a garment or something? I love a story... and I'm dreaming of making a similar scrap quilt.

    There is nothing more precious - just gorgeous. Minnie
    plays with my little dolls quilt that mum made when I was a tiny girl. I hope that Minnie's future babies do the same.
