March Challenge and FnwF

A new month so it’s time for our new number for the “Chookshed Challenge” orgainised by Deana…and this months No is “4”




After checking my list my #4 is to start a new project.


I have this HUGE box of scraps and I thought 🤔 what’s a girl to do with them??? 


So I bought this book.






 What a perfect time to start going through the box and cutting out the blocks , putting them in bags, labelling them ready to take to our annual retreat in August as it was what I planned to be making then.

 I MAY be able to work on something smaller for a finish ???



As it’s also the first Friday of the month I’ll be joining FnwFs . Even though Cheryll. Has visitors she has kindly put up the link for us to sew a long. Thank so much because I am hoping to make my Aussie Hero blocks and #8and #9 of The Laundry Basket Birthday Blocks. 

Must away and sort some fabrics.

Happy Stitching 🧵 

Hugs Maria 💕

  11. That will be such a fun quilt to make with your scraps. Jen designs the best patterns. Two of the girls in my patchwork group have just started it. They want me to make it too, but I already have more than enough in the pipeline.
