SUNDAY SUCCESS


 It is rather hot here down South and I am loving it. I have been in the sewing room most of the afternoon and, believe me, it was definitely a "sweat shop". Now showered, hair washed and in my PJs already I find myself posting for the second time this weekend. My mojo is back but it seems I have lost my Farmer's Wife blocks that I did quite a while ago. As I am determined to finish things this year I am in a bit of a tizz as to the whereabouts of these hand pieced blocks. Ah well, I guess some more space clearing in the sewing room may uncover them in time.

So, here is what I achieved today. I finished another hand pieced block for my current little Civil War quilt. I have since started another as well!


 
 
My March stitchery mini has now been bordered ready to hand quilt, trim and bind. Oh dear, a bit blurry. And that was taken before sipping my G&T!!
 
 
 
 
I have finally machine pieced all the blocks together of my Gail Pan wall quilt. Just need to put a border on it now.
 
 
 
 
On Friday I met up with a couple of stitching friends and one of them had been cleaning out her sewing room. Woohooo! I scored a whole meter of this gorgeous Civil War fabric. Thanks soooo much Veronica. 
 
 
 
 
I am off to one of my patchwork groups tomorrow and on the way back I am going to shop for some fabrics so I can start the "Tiny Teacup Teddies Centre" that I bought from Michelle. I figure that as I finish things I can start another project, or 2 or 3 ??????
 
Thanks for stopping by twice this weekend.
 
Angel Blessings.
