I am proud to say that I have finally completed the purple border on my Insanity quilt. I can't believe it has taken me so long and now I face the challenge of the larger hexie flowers borders . I am also proud to say that I have successfully unpicked all those pesky background hexies that I stitched around the hexie flowers and managed to restitch 4 so far. Here is a pic of the Insanity quilt now .It covers our QS bed!
I have 3 little hand pieced Civil War quilt tops finished but have left them sitting amongst my many other unfinished projects. So, I decided I had best get onto them. I have been hand quilting this one and should finish it this coming week. Well, that's the plan.
Another fat 1/4 birthday swap parcel arrived with a couple of extra little bits. I am just waiting on 1 more now.
The weather came over quite gusty and stormy a few minutes ago. The cockatoos were squawking and flying past to gather in the dead tree on the nature strip next door.
I have a collection of stitchery patterns that I have not yet done so I have decided to trace these.......
to take here.
Let the countdown begin.
Angel Blessings to you all..
