Blankies and babies!

So that's the last of the multi-colour sqaures finished. I'm going to do the last 4 in a single colour (if i can decide which ones to use that is!!) and then decide after that about joining them all together - i have all those ends to sew in first!!
Hopefully the single colour blocks will be quicker to do and i'll finish them by tonight, then decide on joining tomorrow. I want to set myself a fairly strict timetable for it as i'd like to do another one - there will be two babies after all - but i want to do other things too so if i set myself a time limit to do it in then hopefully i'll finish it, unlike the poor hexagon blankie which is still sitting in it's project bag waiting to be finished for a baby that was born last year!! Bad franney!
Mum and Dad are coming up tomorrow, they're staying overnight and then we're all going down to Portsmouth (Southampton??) for my Uncle's dedication. I think that's what it is called. He served in the Navy and as such he is entitled to a burial at sea, so on Wednesday his ashes will be cast into the waves. Let's hope the weather calms down by then!

In baby news - especially for Lise ;o)
They're home, they're gorgeous and they're MINE! So hands off ;o)
This is soooo going to sound like a cop-out but i have been trying to take photos of them and unfortunately they don't sit still long enough to get anything more than a tip of a tail or a whisker! I shall persevere though as they are so cute and i want to share them with you all :o)
Ratty updates don't necessarily qualify as crafting so there will only be the odd update here, the majority of them will be over on my "normal" blog ;o)

Many.. Many thanks Franny for "invading" your crafty blog for me to see piccies of your babies. Indeed.. Sssoooooooo cute.

The blankie squares are lovely, I bet even you will have trouble at the end picking your favourite!
