Dear fellow northern-hemisphereans, does anyone else feel like maybe spring is coming? Here in Japan we’re starting to get just a liiiitle bit warmer, and I can see on Instagram that the sun is starting to make his appearance on the other continents too. I think it’s very poignant that this Friday is the beginning of the Pantone Quilt Challenge – come on, spring!
Sam made this big and bright shawl for a knit-along. See, if I was to pick up knitting, those holes would not have been intentional. So I admire such neat knitting to make them so uniform!
I’ve shared Soma’s quilt blocks before, but look at the quilt all finished!! This is definitely on the long term bucket list, and is something I’ve avoided showing my fellow mini-Whovian children.
Keera has released a new pattern – a super sweet and easy X and O quilt pattern that uses precuts! And there may or may not be a giveaway to celebrate…
Time to link up one sewing or stitching or yarning post from this week!

Hey! I bought one of those Clover finger pressers but hadn’t had a chance to use it yet.

Wow that knitting is amazing! My mum has “tried” to show me how to knit a few times now, I think she’s given up on me lol 🙂
Paula@TheSassyQuilter says
I am excited to see what people came up with for the challenge too. So far I have seen some pretty cool projects in the works. Thanks!
Paula says
Hope spring arrives for you really soon. We’re enjoying our first proper week here, although to be honest much of our winter weather this year was positively spring like. Now we have the added bonus of a a carpet of primroses, snowdrops, crocuses and more appearing on our lawns.

Thank you for featuring my knitting project! I have also avoided showing the Doctor Who paperpieced blocks to my mini-whovians- they would demand them instantly. They’re on my bucket list, too…
Soma says
What a surprise!! Thank you so much for showing the Doctor Who quilt top. You know the mini-whovians will find out about this eventually 😉
I can knit very basic stuff, and I am super envious of people like Sam who can knit such beautiful articles! Very inspiring!

Alyce, thankyou so much for featuring my new pattern. I’m still in shock at the response from so many wonderful quilters. Everyone’s support has been overwhelming. I greatly appreciate you helping to promote this! Keera x
