FNWF stitching.....

It was sooooo fun stitching with so many of you last night

This is one of my UFO's that I am working on and I managed to finish off stitching this block...

It takes me quite a long time especially with changing colours etc...but it is worth it for these stitcheries I think

it was for Friday Night with Friends but I hope some of you were stitching during the hot day whilst the cricket was on.... it was a bit of Friday Arvo with Friends here....

These sticheries are from "Tea Party" by Crabapple Hill

Tillie
It has been a while and I know I have 'shown' some of these blocks before... sorry for any duplicates but as I am over half way with the stitcheries I thought I would show all so far

All the stitcheries have names and many of them have recipes....

.... but since I am not limiting eating cakes and desserts I'm ignoring them....

.... sigh....

there is still Mary Lou, Kelly, Katie, Charlotte and Audrey to do

I love pretty tea cups/mugs and I'm really enjoying these blocks.. they are so pretty 

see you next month at ...


thanks for having us Cheryll....

Thinking of all of you in the fire danger zones in Aus and particularly Tassie at the moment

Righto, Gotto Go.... filing shredding today

Pretty blocks and lovely stitching. Airconditioner on here, cricket on the TV, it's a very Australian summer.

Unknown said...

you certainly are addicted to stitching, and I agree, staying in the cool, watching cricket doing stitchery is a good way to pass the time. Cricket it on here as I type.

Mistea said...

Gorgeous stitcheries - always nice to be past the half way mark.
Mine was mostly a Friday Afternoon with friends too - while it was too hot to open the front door and venture outside.
I did manage some stitches later but not many.
Stay cool.

Katherine said...
