FNwF November

Last night i joined lovely hostess Cheryll & 16 other lovely ladies for Friday Night with Friends. Pop over to Cheryll's blog to see who joined in & what projects they worked on.

I started with making up more shapes for the next row of 1797 Revisited.

27 there.

Next i finished my Halloween cat.

It just needed the moon, 1/2 a star, the leaf & tendril(on the right) & some lines on the pumpkin stitched & it was done.

Lastly i started stitching the next row of shapes onto 1797 Revisited.

Happy Stitching,

1797 Revisited

My new EPP project is slowly growing. It's taking longer now it's grown. The next row i think i counted needs 54 pieces. A long way to get to the 800 plus pieces in the original.

This is the original quilt & details can be found here.

I've added a blue row to mine but not sure i like it but it's staying as i'm not unpicking it. :)

Happy Sewing,

FNSI October

Yesterday i joined in FNSI & I started the morning by putting together a needlecase.

I had just chosen the fabric for the 2nd needlecase when little visitors arrived. So no sewing for several hours. I was tired when they left but i really needed to get the needlecase done so i sat & sewed. Then off to the lounge room to attach the binding.

Now to decide which to send in the swap. :).

After that i traced out a Halloween stitchery.

& put a few stitches in before bed.

After sewing the binding down on the needlecase i put together the next row for my new EPP project. There are 30 there.

Embroidery up next. I finished the flowers off in the jug & completely stitched the other from Send My Love bom.

Pop over to visit our lovely hostess Wendy & find out who joined in & what projects they worked on.


Happy Stitching,

October Snowman.

A few days behind with my snowman heart. I put it together a couple of days ago but only managed to get the stitching done tonight.

Pop over to Karen & Joan's blogs to see the snowman hearts they made for this month.

This pattern was put out by Bunny Hill designs several years ago but they've been released again if anyone wants to make them. You can find them here.

Happy Stitching,

English Paper Piecing

Ummm i might have started a new project. I'm in a FB group & one lady suggested we do a group challenge based on a quilt displayed in the VA museum. We are calling our quilt 1797 Revisited because that is how old the quilt is that is on display.

 Another member asked a lady in Victoria to create the template & papers for us which was really good. As mine arrived yesterday i made a start last night.

After this photo i've started to add the next row. :)

Happy Stitching,
