My projects this week

I finished the 4 blocks for part 7. I wasn't keen on this one as only 3 shapes are used & therefore only 3 fabrics were supplied. I would've like a 4th piece to add in.

It was hard to get the 4th block to look different to the other 3.

I've stitched 1 of the 3 Christmas stitcheries i traced out Sunday

Yesterday i appliqued my Mandolin block to it's background. Now to decide on a cushion or a hanging. I'm going to quilt over it & do some echo quilting around the block.

Happy Stitching,

Natures Journey....

......is a wrap. I finished the binding yesterday

The beautiful quilting by Fiona. I love what Fiona has done with my quilt.

Happy Stitching,

Busy Sunday

I made up the pink hearts cushion

Flat

& with insert.

I sewed the Christmas embroideries to the other pieces needed & cut out the heart shapes & their backings

I then cross stitched the X's in the afternoon, cut out the wadding & spent several hours sewing them together.

After i did the hearts in the morning i added binding to a quilt,which i'm hoping to hand sew down today. I then cut out some backgrounds for my Gail Pan sewalong, cut the backgrounds for my Round We Go BOM so i can start appliquing them down. I stuffed up on cutting out 2 stitcheries for my hearts decorations so i retraced the 2 of those, traced out 3 more Christmas stitcheries, then i retraced some of the stitcheries for Ruth's Dream stitchalong. I had them all traced but discovered i'd misjudged the width so i had to soak all my tracing pen out & start again. i'll just trace out what i need every month now for the stitchalong. After that i was very tired.

After finishing the hearts i finished another block for part 7 Round We Go & started a 3rd.

Happy Stitching,

I'm so dizzy. :) :)

Finally part 6 is done. They took a little longer than i hoped. I didn't get them all done before part 7 arrived though. Now it's onto making those up. Hopefully in the next few days.

Happy stitching,

Round We Go BOM

I'd gotten behind on my Round We Go BOM by 2 months & with part 7 due to arrive any day figured i'd better get moving & catch up. Tuesday afternoon/evening saw prep work & a start on one of the blocks.

Yesterday i finished all 4 of month 5's blocks & made a start on month 6.

Happy Stitching,
