Quilt It!!

Wow, I have no idea where the time is going at the moment. I'm spending so much time in bed its driving me insane. I hate this damp, cold weather it totally knocks me about.

Anyhoos enuff feeling sorry for myself, I best get down to business before I'm to tired to type!
I'm here today to share with you my latest creation for My Time To Craft. Where this week the theme is.....

Shell, this is just fabulous! A very sweet image (though I can't help thinking that the squirrel should be replaced by a cute skunk!!!) and the hexagon background is gorgeous!
