This UFO has been around on my list for some years!. It was actually scraps from a previous project where I had ended up with a bunch of triangles sewn as HST's at the time.....
 |
I first made them into little pinwheel groups of 4 and then sewed strips |
Originally I thought a mini quilt but decided on another project bag instead!
The lining is sweet and the backing is pretty - which I also used for binding and accent on the zip
In the last week I have ended up having 2 machine sewing days with friends so I got quite a few 'Tuesleydale' blocks done....
With all the talking that goes on 5 a day is pretty good!
I changed my ineffective magnets to some pretty poppers
The bag closes perfectly now....
Evening stitching has resulted in another section of tablerunner done, one bit is in such a pale thread it's hard to see, at this stage I will leave it though
Righto, Gotto Go.
Our Widget has his 'formal' this evening and we need to dress up for photo's and the 'walk-in'. I've not experienced one of these before. He featured on my blog many times as a youngster and I keep feeling surprised that this is his final year at school.
Have a lovely weekend...xx
Beautiful project bags Fiona and great use to those left over blocks. Loving your Tuesleydale blocks and your stitching. Hope you enjoyed the formal. Hard to believe Widget is that old!!!
ReplyDeleteHmm, so just how small are those triangles? They made a cute pouch. Lovely to see your Wensleydale blocks.
ReplyDeleteI have a box of HST's which have been waiting many years for attention! Great use of yours and I love the new poppers on your sampler bag. Your table runner is so pretty. Enjoy Widgets formal - is it like a prom? xx
ReplyDeleteThe UFO HST have been made into a pretty project bag.
ReplyDeleteGood progress on Tuesleydale blocks.
Beautiful work on your table runner.
Widget has grown so fast. I’m sure you’ll enjoy seeing him all dressed up ..
