My #sconeathon is FINISHED! 🎉 1 book, 13 months

My #sconeathon is FINISHED! 🎉 1 book, 13 months, 50 flavours and a LOT of calories! My final batch were... plain. 😄 I piled them high with clotted cream and damson jam and they were flipping delicious. 🐷 I've absolutely loved this little project and it's brought me a lot of joy during times when that was hard to find. 💗 Thanks to everyone that has followed my scone-a-thon - I'll be sharing a round-up of my favourite flavours very soon! 😊

I often get asked what I do with all of the quilts

I often get asked what I do with all of the quilts I make, so I've filmed a little tour and added it to my highlights! 🎟 This is my favourite quilt display in our house at the moment - my #WarmHeartedQuilt on the wall and a beautiful antique Irish Chain quilt from @stitchedandfound on our bed. 💕 Do you have many quilts in your home? I'd love to hear about them!
