Despite it being school holidays, and ten days or so away from Christmas, I have been able to sew in small pockets here and there. And slowly but surely, I achieved one block!
I still need to buy some fabric for the background and cornerstones, but I don't want to get that online. I think it's too iffy and I need enough to do a whole quilt. Best to see it in person.
It's really not a bad effort for my first go, and I must admit I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Today's tutorial is not the easiest - no real instructions are given but I have always liked a challenge. It has all the measurements there, and lots of photos, but I'm assuming more than a little sewing knowledge would be required.
It's a very lovely handbag for needlework and clicking on the link I've just given you should take you there. If you do have a go at making it, please let me know how clever you are!
It's a hot one today and we have already done our outside chores for the day, so while the little ones are watching a movie, I'm sneaking into the sewing room for half an hour. Can't wait!
I love the block! Beautiful colors.
ReplyDeleteThankyou! Now I need to think about the next one! I can't decide whether I like them all flowy with the colours or do different ones. I like both styles!
