A quilt with birds

I never asked the quilter the name of this pattern, so it simply turned out to be a quilt with birds. It felt like I would never finish this small wall-hanging, not due to bad piecing or problems with the quilt, but rather due to personal circumstances.  The people fitting the new windows and doors finally arrived, three weeks after we had paid the deposit.  Our house was a freezer with all the old windows and doors removed.  This took them 3 days to finish.

Then it is school holidays for our little ones, and the youngest grandchild is with us full days and finally my own addiction…. Wimbledon.  It feels like the quilting never happened, and if it happened, it was in tiny increments before being interrupted. 

I promised myself that I would not be glued to the TV in the first week as I have way too many quilts waiting, but I just “quickly” check on who is playing and then time simply slips by me.

Then on Wednesday, the little one went with granddad to run errands, and I finally had time to finish this.
