Gender whatever ...

 After being influenced by our quilter who loves making quilts from patterns but who also scales blocks to mini size and as I am slowly getting more mobile I thought I would give cutting a go and do something just not me... Try to follow instructions !!!

These zig zag blocks seemed basic but, after completing a couple of seriously wonky ones -  even when ultra careful with cutting and sewing , I gave up on the instructions (light bulb moment at midnight : same thing happens with recipies and that's why I don't bake!! ) I decided there had to be a better way to eliminate some of the unforeseen errors . 
My method proved better for me but, the project and my head screamed ENOUGH make a baby change/play mat which, is what I did. Final size is 80x80 cm and with the left overs I  made a fairly large zipper pouch so mummy can carry all necessities when on the move.
Had to put the sheep as a backing for the zzz factor!
This project started August 1 and was completed September 15. Quilting lesson 101... Even little things take plenty of time to complete ....lets not calculate social media posts or a blog finally happening !! 
Went through the not unusual emotional rollercoaster many of us go through : hate, like and love that happens whilst constructing so many quilts. Ended up pretty pleased with myself for completing a mini block project and more importantly, having NO scraps left.
