Not a lot of crafting happened last week as the weather was just to hot. Sunday i made a tablerunner & then i spent Tuesday quilting it.
It's quite large & i had difficulty in getting a decent photo of it. it was a Secret Santa gift at our Sunday Stitchers.
Also on Tuesday i cut out a pile of scraps ready to make pineapple table runners.
The result on Wednesday:
1 & 1/2 table runners done.
Even at night it's been too hot to stitch so little progress has been made on my owls. Most of what has been done since i last posted was done yesterday at Sunday Stitchers.
Happy Stitching,

FNSI
I actually managed to join in yesterday for change. :) I started early. I backed, quilted & bound a gift.
Can't show it all as it is a Secret. Hand sewed the binding down last night.
I'd finished 3 stitcheries from my previous post during the week so i cut the felt for those & started stitching them together last night.
On a roll i cut out fabrics for a table runner but that is where it ends. I had a little visitor & by they time they left it was too hot to sew.
I'm going to sew it together today.
During the week i caught up on my pineapple blocks as well. Big marathon sewing day Tuesday.
I was here at lunch time.
& all the coloured rows added by about 9 pm. There is a lot of work there for 70 blocks. The plain row can be chain pieced which makes it so much faster.
Wednesday saw me adding the "ears" & 2 blocks together.
I started stitching my owls during the week too.
Pop over to our lovely hostess Wendy to find links to who joined in last night.

What i've been up to.
I didn't post last week due to illness & then being away for the weekend. I finished the dinosaurs the week before & my GS loves them.
weird little critters.
I've gotten behind on my pineapple quilt.
I should've had another coloured row added here.
This last week i've gotten the coloured row added but i'm now 2 rows behind my SIL. I need to add them by next Wednesday so we can add the rabbit ears & start sewing blocks together.
I've been doing embroidery at night. Started with this deer
but i've put it aside for these stitcheries which i need for a present
During the week when i prepared these i also prepared these owl stitcheries for my daughters present.
Crappy shot. Tried several times to get a good photo. They are iron on transfers that didn't go very dark & it's a dull wet day.
These already were ironed on, i just added the stabiliser at the back ready to start stitching.
