FNSI for November

The third Friday of the month come round so quickly again and I joined in for FNSI with my DD while in Perth. I stitched a small block for Sunhine and Lolliepops BOM 







also spent some time glueing some EPPing for La Passacaglia 








While my DD cut out all the blocks and got them sewn together for a baby quilt.

I’ll enjoy visiting others to see what they made for FNSI, 

Must away and got shopping 

Happy Stitching

FnwFs for November

As the first Friday of the month has rolled around again it’s time to join. Cheryll and friends for. FnwFs. I made an early start (before hubby had an appointment) doing some stitching ready to sew onto a cute pouch ( when I make the hexies !)






Then after hubby’s appointment I worked on hand sewing two more La Passacaglia blocks and later glued heaps of the tiny bits to put around the next row.
 
I’ll be visiting others HERE over the weekend to see what they did last night. Thanks Cheryll for another great day/ night of  crafting.

Happy stitching 

Hugs. Maria 💖
