CHOOKYBLUE is hosting her annual birthday party for her creative space "the Chookshed". We crazies in blogland usually join in and have a kind of virtual retreat.....taking the opportunity to have a bit of a " stitch in".
I embraced it with a happy heart and played with my new machine...Big Bertha as Mr.R has named her.....very happy with my work....Angel Story is now a complete quilt top....also last months UFO CHALLENGE!
Binding is even sewn together waiting in the wings.
Loved every minute of stitching this quilt!
Whilst I was looking out the Paris Fleamarket fabric for the Angel Story border I found these....
Did you ever recieve one as a gift.....so cute! Going to put them in the "to do" pile.
We have another celebration in our family today. Our youngest Grandson is having a birthday.......
A bowling party was the go.....Happy birthday Coops....lots of hugs and love xxx
