Dearest Lavender Little Boys Britches

I wrote this post two days ago and have been very frustrated trying to publish it, Blogger does not sem to want to save or publish from my iPad so Ive now gone to my computer. Anyway I wont bore you with the details. Last year I started to draft the darting minnows block for freezer paper peicing but it all got too hard.

So instead I decided to make Little Boys Britches blocks.

They came together fairly quickly using Linda Collins templates.

Be sure to have a look at my friends blogs in the Dearest Boy sew-along, they're way ahead of me :)

Dearest Lavender hexie flowers

I maybe behind with the Dearest Boy sew-along but I am posting by the 15th of the month - yay!

Here is my hexie flower block.

The original had embroidered trees in the centre, I decided to use a strawberry print instead.

It can a benefit to be behind as unfortunately there was an error in the pattern. I wrote to the designer and it will be amended but too late for my fellow bloggers who could not fit their 4 hexie flowers into the block:

Here is the quilt's namesake enjoying a big breakfast.

And a new little calf called Henry with Maggie (Brucey was under the trees somewhere escaping this morning's heat).

Wishing you all the best for 2019
