Catching up and FNSI.

Time to catch up and do a post for FNSI with Wendy… we had visitors stay over night on there way up North so only got some hand sewing done on the hexies for my pouch.

Over the Easter weekend I worked on my Temperture Tree

My tree is looking very boring as we’re still having temps in the high 20s to mid 30s Celsius. I’m looking forward to cooler weather and a colour change….

I also went through my stash to find fabrics for the next La Passacaglia block as I haven’t done anything on it for awhile.

Must away now as blogger hasn’t been co-operating and I need a cuppa.

Happy Stitching 🧵

Happy Easter

                                          Wishing you all a Happy Easter 🐣 

Have a a great day.

Clayton’s SS , Friday and Saturday

Friday morning I did a job I really dislike doing but it badly needed to be done! Cleaning the oven. 🤬… when I finished I went for a lovely visit with my friend before  getting back to quilting…

Today I completed the quilting and found the packet of binding ( that was a beauty of Jude’s kit, everything was cut ready to sew ) . 

Hope to get the binding on this arvo and maybe sew some blocks for the Scrappy Table runner ..

Must away and bring in the washing.

Happy Stitching,

Hugs. Maria 🌷

Clayton’s Scrub Stitching .( Thursday )

After Brekky I went for my morning dips as we’re still having temps in the 30s … Of course there is always the usual chores but afterwards I got some more quilting done on # 4 Challenge quilt. 

When my shoulders told me that’s enough quilting I found some fabrics to cut blocks for this scrappy table runner….

Must away and make a cuppa…

Happy Stitching ,

Hugs. Maria 💖

Clayton Scrub Stitching. (Wednesday)

My day started by going for a beautiful morning dip with my friends , home, showered and did some cleaning  then it was time to head into the Cave to join in with Susan for Clayton’s Scrub Stitching.

First I did some simple stippling in the cream sections of my # 4 Chookshed Challenge,  Ready, Set Sew quilt.

As hubby had a mate visiting we all went out for dinner and afterwards I played with some hexies for a pouch while watching “Alone” followed by the “Handmaids Tales”

Don’t know why I’m having trouble lately uploading good photos to blogger , photos are often blurry???

Must away as the washing machine is calling…

Happy stitching 

Hugs. Maria 💕
