The plan was to make my "Retreat Bag" Sunday, the first day ... tick ....
Monday I got all the blocks out for the "Laundry Basket 2021 Mystery" which I had bagged and numbered...
I sewed and sewed only stopping for a cuppa/meal breaks till after midnight but had a few more rows to sew together in the morning and the top is done ...
and then it was time to work on Chooky's " Churn Dash" blocks they were also bagged and ready to play with....Flimsy done but I think I'll put a small 2 1/2" border and then a 4 1/2" one....
TaaDahhhhhh!!!! the three projects I planned to work on got done and I was very happy ...
Had the best time with my friends no cooking or cleaning just sewing and enjoying their company.
Must away and pop on the kettle.
Stay safe and well,
Hugs Maria ❤
