Noah has a very red ark-Cornelia FNSI

Last night I put together the applique for a modified version of one of the blocks from the Noah and Friends Kookaburra Cottage BOM. I had intended to make just the middle block into a baby quilt for a friend of mine, the baby's name is Noah. However AFTER buying all the fabric I am not so sure that's what I want to do anymore. Consequently last night went like this:
  • Buy a "Handmade" magazine
  • Look through magazine and ring mum-complaining about not knowing what to sew
  • Get out lots of fabric and ring mum again (same complaint)
  • Decide that I love the fabrics I bought and ring mum again (this time complaining about not knowing what to use the fabrics for since I had changed my mind)
Mum told me to just make the Noah block anyway and then decide later what I want to turn it into and who I want to give it to. Being the good daughter I am :) I listened and am now super happy with the result!


I am still not completely sure what it will end up being, but I think it is very cute and the colours are quite funky! If anyone has any bright ideas feel free to contribute!
