I've been off school for a week now, but haven't managed half the sewing I had hoped for!
There have been relatives to collect from one place and take to another, walls to unpaint and then paint (his job, not mine), the shed to de-clutter and tidy, and coursework to be done
Inspired by Pinterest!
but I have managed to intersperse *some* sewing!
I have finished the Dotty Tumblers
And made some bunting for a friend from her girls' old school uniform
I've done some customer embroidery
And I've made some more Sweet Sixteen blocks: some for me and some for Jackie
I've also made a start on a woven quilt using fruit and veg fabrics I bought, and used half of, at least 4 years ago. I'm doing pretty much the same thing again, but annoyingly I've run out of black so I cant make the missing blocks
Oh dear - I might have to go fabric shopping!
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
