This and That and sign ups for first FNSI 2022

Since my last post I've been trying to catch up with things, 

   

First I made and posted my Aussie Hero Blocks .

and I am pleased to have done the last of the Row by Rows for Patch......

The lady requested "Christmas"

Last Saturday four Patch ladies went to the club rooms and together made this donation flimsy 

It had been pre-cut and with one lady pinning , two of us on a machine and an ironing lady it went together quickly and it was done in less than four hours.....

Next I needed to sew some pieces of wadding together before pinning my RSC quilt from 2021.

Done and now ready to quilt by joining Wendy for our first  FNSI for 2022. 

Visit  HERE and join in the fun.

By sewing along with Wendy and friends I always seem to get something done....

Must away and pop on the kettle.

Stay safe and well,

Hugs  Maria ❤

Row By Row

Tonight I went to Patch or should I say last night as it is after midnight. It was very exciting as we handed over our row by rows. It is seven months since we started and passed on the first row we did.Over the next six months each of the ladies in the swap worked diligently and secretly on each row.Once a month we would hand over the bag to the next person.Of course we had show and tell. The lady who owned the row we were showing had to leave the room.We would all ooohh!!! and aahhhh!! as we admired each row. It was all a lot of  fun and also stress when the right fabric could not be found.I am overwhelmed with my rows and the ladies did such a great job. Thanks again to all. I LOVE IT.

I started with the wonky fence row,which looks rather plain now against all the beautiful appliqued rows. Maybe I need to put something on it.I just love the tulips and the windmill as I am a little Dutch girl.The yellow fat birds sitting on the branches.All the different birdhouses,big,small and wonky.The trees, stars and pinwheels all wonderful. NOW how do I put it together???? I think I will sleep on it.

Don't forget to look at my previous post for retro mummy's giveaway.

At Last

 At last I have finished the RBR I had to do this month. Only one more to go and then we all get our completed rows. Can't wait to see what has happened after I did the first row.
