Bits and Bobs
The last hexie flower is now finished for the inner border of Brinton Hall. I "should" be seeing to my No. 3 on my UFO CHALLENGE list but as I have a dreadful aversion to "should" I'm not...lol! I instead have worked to a certain goal on Brinton Hall.
Star blades are also basted for the corner blocks of this border. I wasn't fond of the one in the pattern so in typical "me" mode changed it. I am using the same one I did on Blessings....why? Because I like it! It will be nice to see how this border works out.
Four more sweet little tags for Ruths Quilt by Leanne Beasley have joined the growing pile. I think I mentioned before that they are a wee bit addictive.....and I see nothing wrong whatsoever with that! My doubts about the thread colour have gone and I am really loving how it is stitching up.
I am still hand quilting at night....taking it slow and enjoying every stitch. I had forgotten just how much I enjoy it. Whilst it is wonderful to embrace the new and exciting there is also something very comforting in doing a task in the time honoured way.....whether it's quilting, embroidery, knitting or crocheting.
I am very close to 4 blocks done.
Two new books, well new to me are waiting for me to open the cover and dive in to.
Looking forward to that treat. That's your lot as the say from me this Friday.

Namaste and Blessings Michelle xxx
