Happy Easter to you all.... very different this year....
We had special visitors to our birdbath this week! I thought it would bring a smile to you all
they had done a runner from home.... so lovely and friendly and I did see they got back home safe and sound....
This is the new Tula Pink fabric... isn't it so lovely and happy and sewing themed too! It is fun having a play with it (shop sample)
A few more games of Sequence have been played.... so far the score is Hubz 4 .... me 1.... (I think he let me win!)
we are doing our bit for the children on neighbourhood walks with a few teddies at the window.... we are a bit off the road but have noticed a few people see them...
Thank you Cheryll for hosting FNWF#2 to keep us busy sewing and blogging over shutdown time.... I have continued sewing my little angel in the evenings and she is done now....
Today I want to add a peeper and borders to make her into a little hanging. This was a free stitchery from The Quilters Angel on their 'tribe' facebook page (I made a little adjustment to the title as I want it for my sewing room)
The last couple of days were overcast and windy (sadly not wet!) but I have got out onto the veranda and done a bit of sewing.... these still need to be stuffed...
The pinwheel (or twister) blocks are all together now... its a bit insipid as not enough contrast in the fabrics but I still think it is pretty.
I am going to add a 1" pink border and then more of that Tilda border which surrounds the pinwheels
It's a beautiful day today so after this I am off outside ... Hubz is mowing the lawn so I will wait till that is done...
I will also be continuing to sew the next round onto my Pineapple blocks... these are growing steadily...
Last night I couldn't resist starting my newest needleturn project.....in lovely Tilda fabrics....
.. and this weeks crochet is almost up to date.... I am working from both ends of a ball to get two squares of different sizes from it....
Righto, Gotto Go... I can no longer hear the lawn - mower so I'm off outside....
Happy Easter... I hope you all find something fun to do
He's a clever boy cooling down in the birdbath , HAHA!
ReplyDeleteIt's a tricky game that Sequence, you have watch everything......miss playing.
You've been progress on all your lovely projects.
Hope the Easter Bunny come......enjoy the rest of the day.
Happy Easter Fiona. I love all your projects - a fellow Tilda lover I feel. But most of all I think I adore your visitors to your bird bath!! Made me smile. xx
ReplyDeleteHad to laugh at that silly doggo in the bath.....bird dog! I didn't get outside to sew today, there is a nippy little chill in the air. It's much nicer inside.
ReplyDeletethat game looks interesting! Love the colours of that fabric, enjoy using it
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a shady spot for a rest.
ReplyDeleteYour projects are all looking good and coming along nicely.
The twister is especially pretty, such lovely colours.
Intriguing crochet! Twister looks great and your Quilting Angel is gorgeous.

Definitely different visitors to the ones you normally see in the birdbath. Glad they were friendly.
ReplyDeletePretty stitchery. And I love the way the twister worked.
The pineapple blocks are coming along nicely too.
So many projects on the go.
Just beautiful, Fiona, every single one of your projects. Of course I'm a bit partial to your needle-turn applique! Those are absolutely ginormous birds enjoying the bird bath. Hilarious! Thanks for the chuckle and sharing your lovelies. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter, Fiona! Looks like the dogs made themselves right at home in your yard. I really like playing Sequence. I think I should find a bear to put in the window. I don't know if anyone plays that around here, but it wouldn't hurt to do it. Beautiful projects.
ReplyDeleteI love that you used red for the quilting angel. So beautiful! Teddies in the window is a wonderful thought. We don't have a lot of people walking our street. Your snowmen are my favorites. Enjoy the nice weather. We have sun today so I won't complain about how cold it is. ;^)
ReplyDeleteQuilting Angel is beautiful. Love the visitors - they knew a good spot when they saw it. I have not seen that game -it looks interesting. Twister looks good.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness you have a strong bird bath!! The photo did give me a laugh. Younhave many beautiful projects happening there, the twister quilt is very pretty.
ReplyDeleteNice visitors At least you saw some one for Easter
ReplyDeleteNice lot of loveliness there
You always do such beautiful work Fiona,i had to laugh at the dog in the bird bath,it certainly is a unique type of bird,lol
ReplyDeleteI love your doggie visitors lol! They look like crazy Staffies! Gorgeous stitchery! Love all your projects and the new needleturn is going to be beautiful. Better luck with your next game lol!
ReplyDeleteLove the dogs....they looked comfy!
ReplyDeleteLove the new needle turned project...as usual it’s all very pretty....
I love your WIPS....Your Stitching - Quilting - and Crochet. They are all very pretty. I love your Quilt Fabrics...they are so pretty and very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI have been staying home except for when I have to go to the Grocery Store or get fuel for my car.
I have been Reading - Stitching - Crocheting and watching Floss Tube Videos and Book Tube Videos.
Take care - Stay Well - Be Safe
