We have had some very hot days of late which means I did get some stitching done. When the temperature reached 41 C (106 F) for 3 consecutive days it is classed as a heatwave, it got down to a very cool 29 C (84 F) over night. Luckily our house is airconditioned so it was the perfect excuse to stitch. I have now finished the 2 wall quilts for my friends twin grand daughters. I will parcel them up today and post them of to England.
I love this quote from Winnie the Pooh and thought it was just perfect for twins.
I used a Rosalie Quinlan design for the label.
I wish you all a safe and happy 2008.

Happy New Year Leanne to you and your family. Your sticheries are soo cute! I admire that you keep on stitching during a heat wave. It’s the last thing that would come up in my mind!
Those mini-quilts are adorable and I really love the labels on the back - I'm bad about labelling things - perhaps that should go on my resolution list too!!! Lucy x
Two great quilts. I recognize the friendship basket pattern in it??
Please send some heat up to norway. I long for spring now. But I guess we'll have more snow and more cold weather for a long time
I like those wall hangings! The labels are real nice too.
Happy New Year ... a whole new year to create projects in ... heat wave or no.
Happy New Year!
What wonderful gifts for those little twin girls. Love the labels.
Those little quilts are just too cute & the labels just as cute. The thought of AC makes me shiver, our high temperature today was 18, wind chill 5...brrrrrr! Happy New Year to you!
Happy New Year to you and your family, Leanne!
Your two little quilts are so cute. Hopefully the two little girls will love them!
Funny, you have a heat-wave, and we got the first snow! It's snowing and pretty windy. Brrr...

I love the labels! They are wonderful.
sorry you are having a heat wave. We are enduring a cold snap.... -3 degrees farenheit, at least!
I love that label - never thought to do that - I learn something new each day even at 11.43 at night ... I must go to bed!
What a sweet quilt and I love that label.
Hello Australia!! I am a portuguese woman who like "découpage" and to paint porcelain and sometimes I write something. Your hall hangings are beautifull and I wish you hapiness and a Happy New Year.
