Last weekend we had a game to watch.... it was cold and we were lucky to find a parking spot with a great view (though I thought the Hubz could have got out and cleaned the windscreen for me!) (Widget is Number 4) They won the game ....
Trail Mix is a finish!!! I do love it ....
I did a flange binding... which means it is all done by machine so quicker than hand sewing it down...
The backing is very bright..... but there are some bright blue blocks in the quilt so I'm happy with it. Here you can see my hook swirly quilting....
Company at appointment meant I made a start on my shawl/scarf. I do need a bit of concentration at the moment whilst I get the hang of the pattern...
World Embroidery Day was enjoyed and Embroider Guild made up little packages for us members...
They were so nicely presented....
and inside a little kit to make up a needlecase.... the base is already sewn and the picture drawn - all the rest provided. I thought it was such a nice touch ...
My evenings are focussing on the Christmas stitcheries..... loving doing them ...
The owls are on the quilting frame. Each owl will be different ....
... and the background wiggly texture. I just love the background fabric and wish I had more in different shades.... I bought it ages ago....
.. and since I had a finish I decided to start a new project..... these are Tilda fabrics...
... and this is the quilt I am making. (Tilda provide loads of free patterns on their web page and this one came with their recent range "Something Blue"....
May take a while!!!
Righto, Gotto Go... the owls are hooting.....
Have a great weekend....x
