Cooler Day

After two days of over 40 Deg Celsius - 109 .4 Fah...      













      in the car












  Under the Patio...


you can see why I spent most of the past two days locked inside with the Air Con on...
nice to just sit and sew..

I did some more appliqueing on the "Bluebird of Hope " blocks ( shown in previous post.)

and made the first set of  Patchwork QAL Blocks organised by Fat Quarter Shop.


I wasn't going to join another SAL this year but after reading about Jenny's  idea of donating the money for the blocks to our Aussie " Make -A-Wish Foundation" decided that was a great idea...
You can still join in by going over HERE....


Must go out while its cool and do some mowing...

Happy Stitching,

Hugz Maria :)

  1. I love that thermometer. I wish I could find something like that up here. It would be perfect.

  2. You have been doing what I have been doing Maria - hiding from the heat. We have a few over 40 degrees coming this week so there will be some more hiding and creating!

  3. Those temps are a killer!
    Lucky we haven't hit the forties at all so far this summer.
    Lovely blocks to make while supporting a cause.

  6. Sorry it is so hot there--but you are still steadily moving along-
    love your blocks--I am considering that one--but haven't made any yet--if I do I have to decide between gingham fabric or polka dots--cause I like the one they showed--
    enjoy the moments (in the cool room) di

  12. I know what you mean about the heat...it has been constant and we are bracing ourselves for the next few days being over 40. You have achieved a lot - I cannot really think sewing which is frustrating me as I have a lot sitting here waiting to be done. Stay cool.

  13. Agree on the heat! Been in the 40s here as well - love your colour selections for those blocks! I'm sitting on the fence with it at the moment - don't want to have too many on the go right at the moment

  15. It's been stinking hot everywhere I think - even on the South Coast we've had really high temperatures 24/7. Great that you have aircon.
