Saturday Sewing

Yesterday i spent most of the day working on Gossips I managed to get the top together minus the borders.
Firstly i finished of the little block by piecing the remaining ones. Here they are with the needle turned ones from the previous post.
The completed block. Next up was the fun of putting the top together. Certain way of doing it but in the end it was all done despite my frustration with it.
Ta Da. the top is now ready for the borders. If it wasn't for the ladies i was sewing along with i don't think i'd ever have started let alone kept going. Thankyou, thankyou for you company & encouragement. Lastly i made a 6" block for an online sampler i joined. All the blocks will be 6".
I needed a rest by them. Back at it today to put together the Xmas bom & hopefully some blocks for a Bonnie & Camille sampler swap & blocks for another sew along i joined. Like i need new projects. lol. :)

Happy Stitching,

Looks fantastic! One day I'll get to the same point. I agree about the encouragement/nagging. LOL. Insert smiley face here, if only I knew how to do it on the iPad.
