We are having a perfect Winter weekend weather wise, so lovely and warm during the day and cold enough for a fire in the evening.....
And with a lot of restrictions down it is lovely to be out and about a bit.... weeks are going fast ....
Last week I finished off sewing the Hollyhock block....
On Thursday during sit and sew with Michelle I sewed up the edges for all these crochet squares.....
they are different sizes so I will sort them out with rounds of the navy blue
Thanks Cheryll for hosting FNWF on Friday night.... this stitchery got finished ......
I still have a lot more but I am hoping to prep up some applique and do a bit of that next week
In between quilt jobs I quickly quilted my two little placemats.... nothing very exciting... just to hold them all together....
Righto, Gotto Go.....things to do, places to see, coffee to drink.... never enough time to do all what I want but giving it the best I can...
I hope you are having a lovely weekend....
Your stitcheries are lovely Fiona, good to see the placemats quilted...next the quilt?? What are you going to do with the crochet squares?
ReplyDeletePretty embroidery blocks. Enjoy the rest of your long weekend x
ReplyDeleteThe embroidery flowers are so amazing, both of them. I really don't know which one I prefer. Have a great one. ;^)
ReplyDeleteYou have had a little dabble in all kinds of crafts!!! They're fantastic. Your embroidery is just gorgeous. x
ReplyDeleteYour embroidery is so pretty, Fiona! We have the fire burning as we speak; this side of the house is in shade from early afternoon so the fire helps stop it cooling down too much.
ReplyDeleteBoth stitchery blocks are just gorgeous. What stitch did you do on the flowers on the second one Fiona???
ReplyDeleteGreat to get the crochet blocks done as well as the quilting on the place mats.
love the hollyhocks :)
