First FNWF for 2015

Last night was the first on-line gathering of the year for our Friday Night stitch-a-longs hosted by the lovely Cheryll  over at Gone Stitchin' I had a busy morning so I curled in my chair earlier to stitch.
I decided to keep going with my EPP blocks rather than stitch something else.
I got my other little Dresden all stitched together....now there are two!
I had played with my six-pointed stars the day before so I appliqued one on to it's background.
Sooo pleased with it. I also started to applique the second on to it's background before my eyelids began to slam shut.
I was always nervous of trying these diamonds but It was easier than I thought it would be....have to admit the points went under better with a few naughty words every now and then...sssh!
It was lovely knowing that all around Australia and across the ditch other friends were stitching with me.
I'll be dropping in over the weekend to see what everyone else stitched or knitted or crocheted or beaded etc.
Have a lovely weekend everyone.
Namaste and Blessings,
Michelle xxx

    Working points always get a few naughty words from me as well. I'm thinking it is a requirement! LOL
