FnwFs X Two

Have spent a few days R & R in the big smoke to visit family and a special friend.

On Friday DD and I went to see “The Sculptures by the Sea”

was at my DD for FnwFs and I had packed my basket of sewing sew we could stitch together…

When I went to unpack my "Natures Journey" SAL I discovered I hadn’t put in the right colour thread… Grrrr!!
Sew I helped DD pin one of her Black and White quilts…

Then last night as DD quilted I joined her by quilting a baby quilt she had pinned ready to quilt.


 Was fun finishing the wee quilt for her….

 I like the way DD pieced the backing….

Thank you Cheryll for organising us for FnwFs even though you were away. Hope you had a great time.

 I will be popping over HERE to see what others have done next week…..

    Glad to see you got to spend some quality time with your DD. How nice that you helped out with her quilting since you weren't able to work on your own project. Great job on piecing the backing. The sculptures look like fun!

    great sculptures, that dog pointing looks like it is a curly coat.... maybe coffee visited the beach?
    Great that you got sewing time with your daughter, even if you couldn't work on your new project.
    Lovly quilts your daughter is working on and I think the back of the baby quilt looks gorgeous. Could use it either way I reckon!

    How lovely to walk along the sea to see the sculptures. Sounds like you still had a lovely time sewing for FNWF. How annoying having the wrong thread.

    Those sculptures look so pretty and the day looks like it was perfect.

    I'm sure DD enjoyed have a sewing companion and a fellow "pinner" for her beautiful quilt. I love the pieced backing too.

    Don't you hate it when you have everything set for some stitching Maria, then not the right thread?! bummer.
    You did a great job on the quilting of the baby quilt - the backing is so good!

    What a fabulous day at the beach. The sculptures are wonderful and the scenery to die for. Just seeing it cheered up a dull day for me. I'd have been spitting feathers when I discovered I'd packed the wrong thread but the day was saved by being able to work with your DD on her quilts. Great quilting and I love how your DD pieced the back too.... I'm making notes! :o) xxx
