Oh dear how can it be April already. Though i'm so ready for 2020 to be over. Never thought i'd ever say that in my life. :) Or a restart of 2020 would be good without all the problems we've had.
Anyhoo must press on.
Last night i joined in Friday Night with friends hosted by our very lovely Cheryll. I'm so thankful to have a virtual sewin to go to. Thankyou ever so much Cheryll.
I felt like starting a new project, sad i know when i have heaps of UFO's that really, really need to be finished. I have heaps of prepped patterns ready to go to choose from so what did i do? I started a project generously given to us by 16 lovely Australian designers.
On Facebook they have started a group called Love & Hugs from Australia Stitch-A-Long & each day the designated designer for that day will give us a pattern for a 6" block. Yesterday we started with Natalie Bird of The Birdhouse & such a beautiful design it is. Can't wait to see what each block is. The blocks are designed to either make a quilt or to turn then into whatever you want.
I took about 10 photo's trying to get the best shot in various areas of my house & none of them looked any good. This one was about the best.
Pop over here to find out who joined in last night & what their chosen projects were.
Happy Stitching,

ReplyDeleteI have been looking for a new stitching project
I joined in last night, and I also joined the FB group for the stitch along too, but didn't make a start yet.
ReplyDeleteYour block is coming along nicely. Enjoy.
I will look forward to seeing your new project grow.
ReplyDeleteso tempting that new project - no way can I do one a day - but I will give it a go - I think its important to record this event in whatever way we can.
ReplyDeleteGood on you getting the first stitchery finished..
ReplyDeleteI often find it hard to take a good photo..
Your stitching is lovely, I am keeping the patterns, not sure I can do one a day but enjoying looking at it.
ReplyDeletelovely block... it's funny how sometimes the light just doesn;t pick up the work properly.
ReplyDeleteIts tough at the moment isn't it.... already April but I think we may be living liek this for most of the year... hope I'm wrong... Luckily we are prepared with stashes...
