I have had 2 days sewing binding on and down on a commission quilt...
Nice to have it all hand stitched down and completed. Today was spent exercising my brain writing sheaths of instructions and redrawing pattern pieces.
I think some nice quiet hand stitching is in order for tonight!
Lovely mail.
When I arrived home from holidays I had a lovely little parcel waiting for me from Chookyblue for my birthday from Birthday Club. Lovely creamy fat quarter and a selection of her beautiful cards.....going to be very hard to give them away!
Thank you so much Chooky. I loved my parcel.
Today the postie bought me these pretties...
Mistletoe has always been a favourite but I have to say Rosella and Peacock are very pretty. Can't wait to thread my needle and try them out.
Have a wonderful weekend folks. I am off tomorrow to frighten my hairdresser! Lol! I had to cancel due to our reorganised holiday, so it's pretty darn scary!
Namaste and Blessings Michelle xxx

Nice parcel form Chooky and some beautiful CG threads....
ReplyDeleteWell done on the quilt finish and good luck with the pattern writing. Hope you got on well with your hairdresser.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful gifts and I can see why you want to start stitching with those pretty threads. You can always frame the cards instead of giving them away. Hope you had a good hair experience. Funny how we need more maintainance the older we get lol.
