Chicks, chevrons and chastened

With much excitement our baby chicks hatched last Wednesday. I didn't realise how fraught it would get with the question of "Should we help them hatch?". Three of the eggs just didn't progress from the little peep hole stage and we ended up assisting them out. I'm not sure whether this was the right call or not, or whether they had already become weakened, but these three all died over the next couple of day. But we still have 9 healthy chicks out of a dozen eggs. They are so cute...

On the crafting front my chevron-ripple-wave quilt continues...

And does anyone else hand in their sewing machine for a service with trepidation? Maybe it's because I tend to get reports like this..
I knew it wasn't good but really..was the highlighter necessary?! ;-)

Hope you're having a good week...
