The Katie J. Jumper...

As soon as I saw Kristy's version of the Katie J. Jumper over at Hopeful Threads,  I just had to have it and purchased the PDF pattern straight away. It's taken me four months, but here's my version of the Katie J. Jumper, by Fishstick Designs.

Just a Reminder ~ Google Reader is going

If you use Google Reader to stay up to date with the blogs you read, then I'm sure you are aware that you will no longer be able to use it after July 1, 2013, as Google will be discontinuing this popular reader. If, like me, you are continuing to use Google Reader right till the end, then you'll be presented with the message above, each time you log in. Don't forget to click on learn more, to see how to backup your Google Reader data. You may, or may not need the backup file, depending on the option you choose, but better to be safe than sorry.

Paper Pieced Linked Squares Block...

I've done some more paper piecing; again, pattern testing for Juliet, over at Tartankiwi. The first time, Juliet trusted me to test her 5" ladybird block and this time, the linked squares block you can see here. I really am testing the process from a beginner's perspective, as the only other paper piecing I have ever done, was a Mariners Compass at a class I attended.
