It's been a strange week....

 Weather wise it's been crazy, some days nice enough to go for my morning dip but yesterday it rained and again this morning so the sea was to rough to go in... Hopefully tomorrow...

Sewing wise I have completed my Secret Sewing and popped it into the post ( will show you after the reveal )  . Then it was time to make some Shields for "Days for Girls"   

After sewing 30 Shields   


  




By sewing through  five layers , one being a hospital grade plastic,  it was time to service the machine and put in  new needle.



but I got sidetracked and started cleaning out my draws



 



I managed to do two 









but this one can wait....



Now I've cleaned the machine and filled some bobbins ready to start a new project....



Hope you are all keeping well and have some time to sew over the weekend...

Must away as it's time to go for a coffee...

Hugs Maria❤

  8. our days were going back and forth like that but I think the cold is definitely coming now.....I'm counting the days until Spring again! I added some space to my sewing area which makes it easier to quilt larger pieces now.......one can get quite into it when re-organizing.....you are doing a good job......nice thing too is we find things we had forgotten about!

  12. Cqtching up on blog reading this weekend, and see I am a week late. You will feel good after cleaning out those drawers and winding bobbins, so you are all set for the next project. Lots of cleaning out to do in this house, one day.

  13. Well aren't you just Miss organization?? I moved my sewing room recently, so I've done some organizing of my own. Doesn't it feel good? And I recognize a couple of the items in your new header.
