Tah dah! Meet Brown Stripe . . .

 It is huge - extra king size - 82" x 106".  Suit a bed or as a sofa throw.

I am glad to have finished this one.  I think I will lit it on Ebay, as it gets more people seeing it than the little Fair I have next month.  I have another one to do after this - the one I replaced the central missing panel in.  I have batting for that, and the original batting.  Should be able to do that on the machine, rather than all by hand as this one was.

You can see how it got its name.  That will either put people off or they won't be bothered.  Looking at the number of quite ordinary patchwork quilts on Ebay for silly money, and many listed by one entrepeneur at £300 each, quilts are in demand right now.

Lots of vintage 60s and 70s fabrics anyway.

Pam and I took her dog Foxy for a walk in the woods earlier.  Did my BP the world of good as that was 115 over 75 on my return.

Tomorrow I have to go to Aberystwyth to look after Rosie until early afternoon, when I will deliver her to Tam & Jon's friends to keep her until Tam's finished work.  She will have their little girl (similar age) to play with.  Then I have to go to Halfords to return the camping stoves which aren't suitable for indoors after all.  My little Trangia Triangle stove arrived yesterday - that is a spirit stove, so will be ok with the window open a little.

Not much else to write about, although I want to do some research into the two Irish bog bodies discovered around 2003, after listening to 3 or 4 podcasts about them.    Oldcroghan Man and Clonycavan Man.  The top half of body and head of the latter were found, but Oldcroghan Man was missing his head and bottom half of body.  Possible churned up by the peat harvesting machine.  Fascinating stuff.
