Emma turns 18 this year. Where has the time gone.

Music is an important part of Emma’s life so I found some music-related fabric for her background. I’ve made notes on the pattern so the next time I use a directional fabric I’ll cut it properly.

This isn’t the pattern I had planned for my April cards but when the English paper-pieced hexies didn’t work out I turned to this one. I used it at Christmas and it was relatively easy to make. It seemed appropriate as everyone in April is getting gift cards.

This card turned out much better than I thought it would. I wasn’t sure those banners would look right but, overall, I’m happy with it. It went together quickly and I’m likely to use the pattern again.

I try to use a butterfly in some shape or form for Kristin (in memory of Lynne). This year I found a lovely butterfly charm square so used it as an accent for the cup.

I have more of these charms so they may show up again another year.
