This week I have completed this Field Journal block
.... and did this one at Quilt Group ...
A couple of cold evenings saw this crochet blanket finished.... the corners look very squoowiff ... but it is better now it has had a wash.
Made of some odd balls of Pure Wool
Yesterday I had girls over at my place for sewing... we all bring our machines and work on various projects....
I had done the applique and embroidery and had the blocks cut out ready for sewing so this block for Gossip in the Garden got put together
Then I worked on blocks made from old shirts..... I will need to cut out some more.....
The next part of Gossip that I am doing is some sweet little stitcheries that will go inside Dresden plates.... they don't take too long to do...

One of our favourite light meals is roasted cherry tomatoes and camembert - added a few home preserved olives and crispy baguette. I add a bit of garlic, olive oil, thyme and balsamic vinegar to the tomatoes.
Righto, Gotto Go... today I am off to Embroidery Guild to learn something new - hope I get it right!
Have a lovely weekend.....xx
Wonderful stitcheries you did and I'm sure you will get the new stitches right. Enjoy and have a wonderful weekend. ;^)
ReplyDeletePretty embroideries. Gossip is looking lovely. I'm sure you'll do well at embroidery guild.
ReplyDeleteLots of stitching for you but I really dove in on your light meal! It sure looks tasty and I may add it to my repertoire. Thanks for sharing , stay safe and sew on !
ReplyDeleteGreat work with those odd balls of yarn. I love roasted tomatoes - looking forward to our crop this summer, the plants are in! xx
ReplyDeleteAnother pretty duo of CGT blocks. Gossip is looking beautiful. I am finding that skinny stitchery strip awkward lol! Nice to keep warm with lovely crochet xx
ReplyDeleteYour blanket looks very cosy....just in time for winter! Pretty stitching too. Your meal would be delicious if it wasn't for those tomatoes - not a tomato eater, me.
ReplyDeleteA lovely warm rug to snuggle under. More pretty field journal blocks. A busy morning sewing with the girls.
ReplyDeleteYour stitcheries look beautiful and your woollen blanket will be very cosy, just the thing for the cooler months. Lots of lovely quilt blocks too.
ReplyDeleteYour blanket looks wonderful Fiona. And that meal looks rather wonderful too!!! How delicious. We are having cooler temps now too. xx
ReplyDeleteLovely FJ blocks Fiona. Also your Gossip inthe Garden is looking great and who doesn't love blocks from old shirts?! Your crochet blanket looks particularly cosy - a nice combination of leftover balls. Your meal looks delicious :-)

Gossip is going so well - and quickly . .
ReplyDeleteLove the short blocks...well reaLly love most of your stuff . . . a lot of variety
I like the idea of camembert and tomatoes etc for a meal - got to love baked camembert...have you tried it with honey and some dukkah sprinkled over it . . .then in the oven for a bit....mmmm
I love the shirt blocks!
ReplyDeleteAll projects are lovely.
ReplyDeleteGossip is really progressing now. Looking good. Your rug will be nice and toasty, being wool. I think I’ll visit your house for lunch. That looks rather tasty.
ReplyDeleteI love how your stitchery looks with the variegated threads. You amaze me with all the projects you are working on and finish, I am getting slower each year, or maybe busier.
