FNWF

Well after a very frustrating visit to that Swedish Retailer....I must be the only person on this continent that loves their wares but hates the place....anyway I felt like I had run a marathon....so easy dinner....loaded potatoes and salad.
And then I joined in with all my other bloggy friends over at CHERYLLS at Gone Stitchin for our monthly stitch in. Thank you Cheryll x
I worked on my Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt and got the last border hand quilted!  Very happy girl here!

This one is soooooo ancient! Off to sew the binding on.....woohoo!
The upside of my visit to that unmentionable retailer is I now have a lovely new art trolley.....assembled by the man of the house after he recovered when I uttered words he hates......"Some assembly required" lol!
If you want to read my latest art blog post go HERE
Enjoy your weekend....binding awaits me.
Namaste and Blessings Michelle xxx

    great new trolley, I get annoyed with the

  11. I hate going to that place too! They built a warehouse 5 minutes from me but did they build a store to go to? No. I hate the 45 minute drive which is nerve wrecking on a good day. I was hoping I wouldn't have far to travel but nope. I've only went twice and got lost both times. Then the huge building which is not conducive to those with knee issues. I do like a lot of their stuff but not enough to go through hell getting it. Love the Grandmother's Garden quilt. Quite the accomplishment

  15. I, too, am not a fan of said store. I feel like a gerbil on a wheel...once you get on "the walkway," you can't get out...it's exhausting. I do enjoy their merchandise and their prices are wonderful for young people especially, but it's like a marathon to make it through the store!
