FNSI plus for April.

I was happy to join Wendy last night for FNSI there was some mending , unpicking and resewing to do...

FIRST I had to mend Hubby's favorite Flag Quilt.


When I put the 20 Sewcialite blocks up on the design board I realised three had parts sewn the wrong way . They needed to be unpicked and re sewn.

This was the last one and then off to bed.

Saturday.

Today was a busy day having morning coffee with my dear friend and then off to Croquet in the afternoon , dinner and  dishes 

but this evening I wanted to get the last four blocks of the Sew-A-Long done and I was really annoyed when I realised what I'd done AGAIN 

more unpicking and re sewing 
  I was determined to do the last four blocks  so I could post them.

 
Finally ...........

Thank you Wendy for getting us together for another great night.

Look forward to seeing what others did tomorrow HERE


 I must away and go to bed....

Happy Stitching ,

Hugs Maria  ❤

  1. The blocks are pretty Maria. So frustrating when things get sewn on the wrong way. I did that recently on a block then wondered why it look strange. lol

  3. You obviously had it in your mind that you had all the pieces the right way round as you pieced those blocks. Such a shame, unpicking is not fun.

  4. What would we do without our unpickers. Very frustrating but worth the effort and time.

  8. Love the colours you are using for the Socialite blocks. It is always a pain when bits won't behave and have to be unpicked, but it is better to find them when they are just blocks, and not when you are doing the quilting!

  12. Just as well you realised the boo boos now, rather than when you were putting the top together. I bet hubby was pleased to have his quilt repaired.
