All Caught Up

I am now up to date with my Splendid Sampler blocks, finishing 12 and 13 yesterday.
Block 12 by Pat Sloan
Block 13 is a lovely block by designer Corey Yoder. Although I have to admit that there was a bit of reverse stitching on this one. My ability fell short of the design...lol! I am really chuffed that I got there in the end..
My secret sewing has come to a halt whilst I audition border fabrics and plot the next bit of the journey...
While I am pondering I have been putting in some stitches in Blessings.

and trying to find a way to squeeze some sweet little bears into my stitching time...
These are soooo cute! You are going to love them. ...if I can find time to stitch them that is lol!
Someone remarked to me that I get quite a lot of stitching done! My reply.....you probably can't write your name and all your ancestors in the dust on your furniture like I can lol! Not quite that bad but almost!
At least "bored" is not a word or state of being I am friends with.
Namaste and Blessings Michelle xxx

  5. Dear Michelle,
    lovely work, so much going on in your sewing room and it is all just gorgeous.
    You know, I was thinking if I switch the dark furniture into light wood furniture, the dust won't be so obvious...
    Greetings,
    Sylvia

  9. Wow! You really are a wiz with the SS blocks and they look great. I am waaaay behind lol. Oooooo, you are tempting me with more bears I see. Don't hurry, I have far too many projects to do before I 'need' to accumulate more teddy patterns.

  14. I think you have your priorities right. The dust will always come back after cleaning so it can wait a few more days!
