3rd week of April

Second block of Caswell quilt is done.....


Thanks to Michelle and Marina for the enabling .... and support....

My local group UFO for this month was to finish off my Sashiko panels into something.... I found some suitable fabric in my stash and made them up into these table toppers.... they are quilted too but in a matching colour so you can't really see it...



Binding was done at my Tuesday sewing day and then I went on a made up a couple of hexagon flowers....



In the evenings I have been knitting and crocheting.... this little jumper was finished....


It has little poppers on the back for fastening.... I think it will fit a 1 - 2 year old


I did find I needed to concentrate a bit for the pattern especially whilst increasing for the sleeve but happy with the result....

That's my crafting week.... 

Righto, Gotto Go..... I started some bags a couple of weeks ago and would like to get them done and out of the way....

Have a lovely weekend....xx

Nice projects. The Caswell block is pretty.

Very productive week. Love that your Sashiko panels got finished into something people can admire at your home because they are really worthy of admiration. Great job! As always, your hexa-flowers are awesome! The little top is so cute but who is it for? Are you to become grandma one more time? The show stopper is the Caswell block. Oh! How I love this one. Enjoy the weekend. ;^)

Such a beautiful Caswell block. Bet you’re enjoying stitching it!
Lovely to have made two table toppers with the Sashiko panels.
Two more nice FJ hexies.
That’s a pretty jumper you also knitted.
Enjoy the weekend .
