Hi lovely readers, sorry I’ve been a little absent. I suspect that Thursdays seem to be my day of blog catch ups.
I’ve had little time to sew, but I have been spending much time knitting. Sadly the knitting is very boring to show you on a blog, so I will spare you that. I thought I’d show you what’s on the go around the house lately if you like.
I finished my lovely row by row, and it was too nice to fold up and put it in the cupboard, so I have it draped over my lounge chair.
I love the cosiness of a crocheted blanket. It’s way too hot to use it yet but I will when it cools down, I can assure you!
I’m still slowly plugging along at my hand quilting though to be honest, I rarely find time to do it. It’s that old ‘you can’t sit down in the daytime’ problem I spoke of before.
And my hexie project is slowly working its way along. I flew to Melbourne with my husband (child free) on the weekend and I’m not at all a comfortable flier, so I was determined to do something rather than panic about plane crashes look out the window the whole time. I’ve not stitched in a plane since they ramped up the security processes, so I was pleasantly surprised that no one cared, and I got quite a bit done. In fact, I ran out of hexies mid way through and had to buy a book for the return flight home.
So that’s all I have to show you right now. I’ve got a few quilts ready to be photographed and once I get that done, I’ll have a lot of new stuff to show you!
Hope your days are quilty ones!
Marvelous progress on all your projects! I am always so impressed with your hand quilting.
ReplyDeleteYour row-by-row is gorgeous - bet you are looking forward to cooler temperatures in more ways than one! I love your hexie project too - sounds like a good distraction. I suffer from that 'cant sit down during the day' thing too (although to sit down at my machine is ok!!)
