Starting Allietare 2015 Mystery quilt

Decided to go with Blue instead of Red, so here are my current fabric choices

Part 1 

Catching up on blogging

Wow - just looked at my blog and realised how really bad I am at blogging (had to google my own blog first to find it too :-0 )
I guess I will just use the rather emotional arrival of my grandson last November (2014) as an excuse for no blogging...
Hard to believe that last year this time his little life was hanging on a thread.
He was born on the 20th of November 2014 with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia (I had never ever heard of this until last year), airlifted from Benoni to the Parklane Hospital in Johannesburg on the 21st November and went through several operations over the next couple of weeks.

This was on the 5 December 2015, the first time his mommy got to hold him

And this is me now - the happiest and most special little boy, eating watermelon with granny.
