Hi gals, I've been very busy with finishing a couple of quilts for the two babies in the family. Delphi will be 1 in October and Chase will be 1 in November. Plus I've been doing things for my ladies luncheon, just fiddly bits etc.
Just off to get Aqualina from pre-school - it was her first orientation day for "big" school for next year today. She looked gorgeous! She is a real sweetie.
Love to you all, Chris
Delphi's nickname is "Bubbles" hence the bubbles on the label.

Thanks baydreamer. I used the scalloped edge ruler. I bought it from Punch with Judy an Australian firm on Friday 5th September and it arrived at my home on the Monday 8th - talk about great service. Judy lives down at The Rock - 31kms southwest of Wagga Wagga, New South Wales and it's 618kms from The Rock to our home in Newcastle! Love Chris

Hi Marian, I used the Scalloped Edge ruler. You measure the length of your quilt and take off 4 inches. There is a little book that has the measurements worked out in it roughly. So I adjusted my measurements to suit. You can't tell but one of the scalloped edges is a bit smaller than the others, but that's my secret, don't tell anyone will you! Love Chris
