Another visit to the loft

 that resulted in something quite different than the item I went up there for.

I was looking for some heavy white material with a touch of grey to fix the lid of my washing basket (post of its own of I find it and get fixing) However, it was not to be found.  It has not been found in several places already and may continue not to be found all over.

Whilst looking I got my eye on a jungle themed panel I was given by a lady at work and some other bits and pieces, which I think were from Nikita.

Had them for quite some time indeed, hmm sounds familiar. But all of a sudden I knew what I would do with them all.

I cut the panel up  into six blocks that each had all nine jungle images in them. 













I had a bit more of the lighter toned material and it made for the sashing between the panels and for the middle and sides. The darker material did the bottom and top.

I had four small pieces of the sashing material left over. (they might go into bits-a-quilt repairs or the next bits-a-quilt. Or they might sit in a bag awaiting for some other project. But as you can see there is not much left at all.

Oh I also have four strips, each with three sets of  animals on them . Two with the lion at the top and two with the elephant. 













I will decide if they are to be a coordinating cushion or form a decorative back. I think that will wait until I have decided what to use as backing...in a little bitty. Or potential several very large bitties to be honest.

Oh and Forestella released a new album today with a new song at the same time.
