Last FNSI for 2023

I always enjoy joining Wendy and for the last one I went into the cupboard and found the fabrics needed the Aussie Hero blocks and cut out the strips ready to sew.

 

Later in the evening I sat and did some more EPPing on my La Passacaglia and finished the row/ circle.

Now to get the next row ready to sew on.

Thank you Wendy for keeping us enjoying our FNSIs … Happy Christmas 🤶 to all …

Must away now and visit some blogs,

Happy stitching 🧵

Not Happy 😡

I really can’t believe that my internet has dropped out AGAIN……..so hot spotting again.

During the week I managed to make two small quilts to add to the others Helen is taking to Perth Children’s Hospital on Sunday.

They use this size to put on top of the humi cribs so I think I’ll make a few more.

In the evenings I’ve been hand sewing the hexies together and making the next set of EPPs for La Passacaglia.

Must away now and do some tidying in the Cave.

Happy stitching 🧵 

Hugs. Maria ❤️

FnwFs for December..

WOW ! December already and it was time to join Cheryll for FnwFs for the last time this year… I always enjoy these evenings as I seem to get organised and get something done. 

So a huge thank you Cheryll for keeping us on track all year even when you’re away on your trips.

Last night I sewed on a scrappy binding on my RSC “I Spy “ blocks and completed the quilt ready to be taken to Perth Children’s Hospital next week.

Then later in the evening I sat and stitched some hexies together from my long term project 

 Must away now and visit others to see what they have done HERE before I go to croquet.

Wishing all the FnwFs a Happy Safe Christmas 🎄 

Happy Stitching 🧵,

Hugs Maria 💖

Again….

I’ve got no internet 🛜 so will do a post on my iPad by hot spotting from my phone…. 

Been doing some more on La Passacaglia and now I’m trying to decide on fabrics for the row after the yellow? 

Which green????

The row after the green will be a star with the pink one in the centre and green lattice as the diamond. ♦️ 

I really need to get back to quilting the RSC “ I Spy “ ready to be donated to the Children’s Hospital. 

But as you can see I got side tracked again. Was looking for some red ticking (for another project. 🤔) I came across this very long time UFO.A box of hexies. So now I’m playing with them. 

Do we all work on multiple projects at once??

Must away now and put on the kettle for a cuppa.

Hugs. Maria 💖

FNSI for November.

Last night I joined Wendy and friends for FNSI and did the quilting on my table runner.

It’s the second one made for the left overs of  “ Chain Links “.

Then I sat and did some hand stitching on La Passacaglia 

After a very busy day today playing croquet and then sewing in the evening with friends I 

Must away now and go to bed…

Happy stitching 🧵 

Hugs 🤗. Maria 💖

FINALLY

I'm back.....I've had no internet since Oct 26th. Finally, today a technician came and sorted out the problem and I'm back online....

So now I can show you what I've been up to . 

Sewing Christmas Pillowcases for " Kids in Oncology "  

 

Aussie Hero Blocks for November..

put together another table runner from left over Chain Link blocks.

In the evenings I enjoy sitting and doing some hand sewing on La Passacaglia.

Decided to put all my blocks on the design board and was surprised how much it's growing. 

Poor Lacy was scratching so much I made her little socks till the injection she had stopped the itching.... 

Must away now and make a cuppa so I can catch up on some blog reading.

Happy Stitching .

Hugs  Maria  ❤️
