Just a little sewing

I'd gotten behind on Wendy's BOF & had blocks 6, 7 & 8 traced out. The weekend before last i got back into it & completed those 3.
Now to get number 9 traced & stitched. :)

August has just rushed by me & i had 2 blocks to get made for the Bonnie & Camille sampler swap. This time around each of us was assigned a partner to send a gift to & the sewing part of that gift need to be done too.
My blocks which were posted off in time
& a few things i made to add to what i was sending my partner.

Lastly i need to get part 7 of Natures Journey done. Friday I cut & sewed the pink & brown borders & prepared 46 squares for applique. I had 2 rows done by Saturday night & yesterday at Sunday Stitchers completed the last 2 rows.
I'd better make an early start on part 8 as there is a lot of work to do.

Happy Stitching,

I haven't even started Wendy's BOF yet - I think your Aussie hours are longer than ours, lol. Love the B&C blocks and the darling extras you added. Your NJ is STUNNING!

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
