And in the evening I went to Patch and had a Christmas 🎄 get together with a few friends and got the quilt sandwiched and pinned. Do hope there’s enough pins as I have three quilts in a queue also needing quilting!
When I returned home I sat and completed this La Passacaglia block.

Last FNSI for 2024.
I enjoyed joining in for the last FNSI for 2024 with Wendy and friends online in the afternoon and sewed the backing for hubby’s quilt together.

FnwFs for December
Last night for FnwFs I hemmed and threaded elastic round a new Christmas tablecloth for the outside table.
It’s starting to look like Christmas!🎄
And I finished the Christmas skirt for my GD2.
A great FnwFs and now I’ve all my gifts done for our early Christmas next weekend.
Must away now and get some decorations up…
Happy stitching
Hugs Maria 🤶

Time to catch up.
Nearly four weeks ago I decided that quilows would be great Christmas gifts for the four GGC so off to Geraldton to get suitable fabrics. These are the ones I purchased.
I managed to make two and cut the rest out ready to sew before going to Perth.
On our way we decided to go to Carnamah to see the small towns new tourist attraction. The Worlds Biggest Tractor

It was worth the detour to see it.
Hubby and Lacy dwarfed under it
We needed to be away for 10 days so I spent time cutting out fabrics , in my DD2 craft room, for a Christmas skirt for GD 2 with the help of my assistant . NOT!
Finally managed to to get some sewn together but when I turned around Lacy was back…….
I did finally get it all together ( after closing the door ) ready to sandwich, pin and quilt on my return.
I also joined in for FnwFs ( last week) and you can see what I made in the previous post.
It was great to be home again and I spent Saturday sewing catching up with my Laundry Basket blocks
Five done !
Just when I thought I’d caught up another is waiting for me.
Delighted to have make these tiny stockings for my two daughters and four eldest GC,
Santa will pop some $$$ in each too!
Onto Sunday and Monday and I completed the Quilows.
And just in time before I was knocked down with a terrible coughing virus that’s taken over a week to go. Will spend time quilting the Christmas skirt then sew on the binding for by tomorrow..
