This week I finished the hand sewing for a section of Part 3 for Gossip in the Garden.....
... and then at a machine sewing day with friends I sewed on the border...
On the same machine sewing day I sewed up my 12 green buttons for RSC....
... and my Green House....
I had all the pieces cut for the blocks so it makes it easy to just sit and sew... and chat... and drink tea...
In the evenings I have continued with LTMD stitcheries and these two are now done....
I treated myself to a gift of a new sewing book....
Not sure when I will get to these blocks but I do love samplers.
We have had some much needed rain, not a lot but it looks promising for a wet weekend.... which means a great time to stay indoors and sew....
Righto, Gotto Go.... Friday Night Gin Time....
Hope you have a lovely weekend......
Sweet little basket. Well done with getting your greens done - mine are cut out..... xx

ReplyDeleteLovely projects, they all look lovely. Enjoy the new book. Love the quote. I nearly spat my tea out having a laugh.
ReplyDeleteCute little basket. It's funny how the bottom is different on the left than on the right. Love the buttons. So curious to know what they will become. woohoo! Suspense! My stitches aren't even enough for Sashiko but you go, girl! You have the talent for this. Enjoy! and the gin too. (I love that picture, lol.) ;^)
ReplyDeleteGin still wouldn't cut it lol! Your basket looks great....I started on the daisy. Love all your greens this month for RSC. Your new book looks interesting x
ReplyDeleteGood progress all round.
ReplyDeleteThe greens are looking good. I do like those button blocks.
Have fun with your new book!
Great progress with your green blocks and stitcheries. Looking forward to seeing what you do with your new book.
ReplyDeleteWow! So many things on the go. I loooove Sashiko! That book looks awesome. Looking forward to seeing what you make from it.
ReplyDeleteI luv seeing these button blocks come together,cute sticheries!
ReplyDeleteI have been tempted to have a go at Sashiko, but there just isn't enough hours in a day!
ReplyDeleteSweet GREEN buttons for the RSC, Fiona! I like your house block and that darling stitching, too. Was there a pattern for the house. I enjoy using smaller scraps and our guild's challenge for the year is to make a quilt for the DOQ Neighborhood Challenge. Your block would be perfect for the type of scrappy sewing I like to do.
ReplyDeleteNice work Fiona. EnJoY your new book and subsequent project of Sashiko...xox
