The lovely Brisbane Sunday Stitchers invited me to join in with a Group project which is a small quilt called Floral Fun, featured in a Quilters Companion Magazine (No. 127)
These are my blocks for February ....
Susan, who leads me astray sometimes and I are sewing Be My Neighbour together and these are my 2 February blocks .....
It is a free pattern by Fabric Patch (was used for a Moda Sewalong)
I have finished my crochet cot blanket ........
I have now started another scrappy adult size one which I am making from a bunch of different variegated yarns..... (I hope it does end up looking ok)
I was given quite a large piece of 'Cheater Quilt' fabric some years ago and in my sorting and clearing made up a tablecloth (I don't have a fancy table but it does scratch when the girls come over with machines, or when I try and cut papers on it!
I did a quick all over meander using an old gifted but never used, doona cover for the backing and machine sewed the binding (no need to go in the queue this time!)
It suits the room and will not show any tea stains etc!
The next Caswell block has been started but I'm moving slowly this week. I am now of an age where I am eligible for a free Shingles vaccine, "oh yes ok" - I'm there for anything free!! Well, my arm is so sore, my whole body aches and I just want to sleep.... it will blow over soon I know but then I have the second one to look forward to.... still preferable to a dose of Shingles
Righto, Gotto Go, I am attending a Fit To Flatter 2 day workshop this weekend and hope to learn how to adjust patterns and end up with a new dress ..... I need to go and put my supplies together.
Have a lovely weekend.... and week ....x
