She's watching you
I’m feeling particularly uninspired for things to write about tonight, so it must be time for a gratuitous photo of Parsnips:

o I went and bought fabric for the Birds in Flight quilt yesterday. Just the background fabric, because I’ve decided to use a “scrappy” style for the actual birds (where you use a mixture of similarly coloured fabrics to make up the shape, rather than just one fabric), and I’ve got more than enough in…
