FNwF August

I signed up to FNwF eagerly with plans to finish a few ufo's & hopefully put my Round We Go bom together until i realised that once again my daughter's orthodontist appointment fell on sewing Friday. :( :(. By the time i do the trip in & back home it leaves me tired & little time to sew. I really need to talk to the receptionist & tell her no appointments on sewing Friday.

Sew what to do? My Grandson asked me what i was doing when they called in for a few minutes & i told him i was contemplating what i would do with my evening. Whether to do the outline stitching of my cross stitch, some EPP or find some patterns to trace out. Tracing some stitcheries won out.

I traced one of Gail Pan's designs & it won the "which will i stitch first" decision.

The other one ready to stitch is from Fig N Berry.

Such a cute little Christmas design.

Pop on over to visit with our lovely hostess Cheryll to see who joined in & what projects they worked on.

Happy Stitching,

It's good to see that you don't let difficulties get in the way of relaxing time. Stitcheries are just as fulfilling as making quilts. Keep enjoying!

#4 Chookshed Stitchers Challenge.

 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...
