FnwFs for August

It was great to finally spend time in the Cave sewing along with Cheryll and friends for FnwFs . Was able to  up to catch up with some of my projects that have been neglected over the past few weeks.

First was to sit and stitch the leaves on my Temperature Tree. Even stitched today’s this morning.

Then on to cutting and making a start on July ‘s Aussie Hero blocks

While sewing  the block I was making the binding for the. Charm Square Baby Quilt as a leader and ender.

Deana has spun No #7 for this month’s  Chookshed Challenge for me it is “ Sunshine and Lollipop “BOM . Found the box it’s stored in and got out No #2 ….. #1 is done and I’ll be happy to just get #2 make for August.

I’ve changed a few things in my settings so hopefully your comments will be sent to my emails.

Must away and pop the kettle on.

Happy Stitching,

Hugs. Maria 💖

Phew !! Made it

Spent the afternoon putting together my # 9 Chookshed Challenge together…..

And I’m happy to have turned the Charm Pack into a flimsy…..

I like it as is but do you think it needs borders???   

Thank you so much Deana for keeping us on track with the challenge . Wonder what the No will be for August???

Must away and organise something for dinner,

Happy stitching 

Hugs. Maria 💖

P.S  As comments aren’t being sent to my emails I apologise if I don’t reply to your comments. 

Purple RSC for July

I haven’t done much sewing in the past five weeks as I was keep busy visiting hubby in three different hospitals in Perth and Geraldton but I did manage to complete my RSC blocks . Purple was the colour Angela chose for July.

      

The background fabrics are darker then shown in the photos.

I still haven’t made a start on Deana’s Chookshed Challenge but I’m hoping to get to play in the Cave tomorrow . One more day to at least make a start?? 

Must away and go to bed ,

Happy Stitching .

Hugs. Maria 💖

FNWFs for July

I didn’t do a lot for FNWFs as my DD2 and I drove back from Perth so only worked on making some more La Passacaglia EPPs.

 

Do hope to get back into some more projects soon as I haven’t started my Chookshed Challenge yet or worked on my Temperature Tree for weeks.

Must away and have some Brekky.

Hugs. Maria 💕

FnwFs for July

This month for FnwFs I didn’t get much done as thought I would have been home but I’m still in Perth so there’s only some hand sewing done.

 

I needed to buy some clothes so took up the sleeves of the top and also the legs of a pair of jeans.

Afterwards I worked on a La Passacaglia block. This one’s seems to taking forever to finish.

Thanks Cheryll for getting us together for FnwFs as it was nice to just sit and do some stitching.

Must away and make myself a cuppa and see what other worked on.

Hugs. Maria 💕

 

FNSI for June

This year is flying by and it’s already the third Friday of the month of June . Time to join Wendy and friends for FNSI. 

Had sashing ready to add to some of the Down Under blocks and make the flying geese as I go for the borders.

And in the evening I worked on some knitting…

As my comments haven’t been sent to my in box I’ve set comment moderation to see if the works??

Must away to see what others worked on.

Happy stitching,

Hugs.  Maria 🌷

Catch up Post

I realised I hadn’t posted my other RSC blocks or the Aussie Hero ones for June….. 

And my Orange Fish all have eyes…..

Aussie Hero Blocks.

Hubby had asked if I could make a couple of bowl cosies for his friend’s Mum. So I checked out my stash and found some cute owl fabrics and two different spotty ones…

Also I’ve finally tackled “ Horrible Horis “ and re-potted him… He has the nastiest barbs.

And I also fell down a rabbit hole and decided I needed a new hand sewing project . A Hexie Caddy.

Once I started I just keep working on it each day . Not sure if it needs a lid or I will use it to put and my bits in next to my chair?? 

Oh and I did finally re thread that pesky overlocked and it’s sewing beautifully.

That’s all for now and 

I must away to watch Tipping Point.

Happy Stitching 

Hugs.  Maria 💖
