Last night we sewed together for FNWF hosted by Cheryll...... it was a hot night here and I was happy to sit and sew some backstitch animals...
My little duck is done.....
I worked on catching up with the blocks for Wish You Well.... all the stitcheries and the applique circles had been done....
All the main blocks are together now..... I will be shopping for something suitable for a border
This weekend is retreat time.... I come home in the evenings but daytime is spent with friends sewing.....
I have taken my heavier sewing machine and doing some free motion quilting/raw edge applique on my animal silhouettes....
Righto, Gotto Go..... time for a coffee then get myself ready to go and sew!
Have a lovely weekend... it's a scorcher here so plenty of water will be consumed!

Wish You Well is a gorgeous flimsy and I'm sure you'll find the perfect border for it...
Cute Duck..
Looks like fun at the retreat. I'm sure it's air conditioned...
Love your quilt - it's so pretty! We have had some horribly hot weather this week, and I am over summer.
Wish You Well is such a beautiful quilt. The stitcheries are so whimsical and the laces really add to it. Enjoy your retreat.
What a cute duck! Wish you well is looking fabulous. Have a lovely retreat. xx
Wish You Well is FAAAABUlous!! All the little details, minute attention, laces, and embroidery make it so special. Spectacular! Congrats!
Keep in the shades. ;^)
I so love the bits of lace on that piece! I'm glad you're able to stitch with friends at the retreat, too. How are you handling virus protection at the retreat? Lots of open windows? Sewing machines very widely spaced? I know you're being safe, just curious about the details :)
Your version of wish you well looks beautiful. It's been fun seeing all the different colourways and little tweaks that people make.
Did you sign up for next year? I have.
Wish you well is even more stunning when all the parts have been sewn together! I joined a QAL that starts in January that uses old linens......it reminded me of your Wish you Well.......
Your Wish you Well is beautiful Fiona. Enjoy your weekend sewing, looking forward to seeing the African animals.
I love how creative and scrappy that quilt is. Nice job!
I knew that top would go together quite quickly. It looks lovely - will you do the 2019 club too??
I hope you had a happy time retreating - I imagine it was hot in that room....
Your quilt is so beautiful. Looking forward to seeing it complete. Well done! Have fun on your retreat.
That's a cute duckling Fiona, and Wish You Well is looking amazing! The doilies and laces in it give it such a special look. Lovely you could go on retreat - hope you got lots done and didn't spend too much time chattering hehehehe
