Catching up…….

Over the past two weeks I’ve been catching up with my sewing 
First I made the RSC. Blocks and for this month Angela chose Aqua.






       
      

       



       Next finish July Aussie Hero blocks 
       and get the August ones made as well



I also got the binding made for the Baby Charm Pack quilt. Just need to now sandwich, pin and quilt it.

In the evenings I’ve been doing the stitching on my #7 Chookshed Challenge






And I really enjoyed listening to Tina Turner’s audio biography while sewing….

Hope all are keeping well and finding time to stitch,

Hugs.  Maria 💖

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 💖

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

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 💕
