Hello fine folk. I haven't had too much to share of late. I have had a good old dose of the "dizzys ". I have low blood pressure and every now and then I get a bit swoony. This has meant no reading, drawing or sewing until the world rights itself. Thankfully it has passed and normal transmission can resume.
I am doing a little secret sewing....
Which I will share when I am done.
Another little postcard is on the go also.....sorry about the crinkles!
And now I am getting ready to stitch the last bits on my February UFO challenge.
Some leaves and a stem for this block...
The second block I have dithered over as I wasn't overly fond of the design on the side.....after some time I decided...Heck** when In doubt throw some hexies at it lol!
That's better! I do worry about myself sometimes. I just can't always follow the pattern to the letter....ah well!
The other nice thing is back to reading. I was half way through the second one when I had to stop.....enjoyed them both!
That's me caught up.
Sending healing hugs and thoughts to my fellow Queenslanders in the North 💖
Namaste and Blessings Michelle xxx
Pleased to read you are feeling better & over your dizzies Michelle. I had a tooth removed & the medication he put me on gave me two days of the dizzies. Not fun at all. Pleased you are back creating your beauties again Xxx
ReplyDeleteGlad to know you are better. Love your stitching, take good care of yourself. Guida
ReplyDeleteSo glad thethings I world is now right side up for you. I have BPV which thankfully doesn't occur much. Love the hexie idea. There is no law that says one must stick to a pattern.
ReplyDeleteOoops. No idea why that comment has extra bits in it. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you have been unwell - no stitching!! Anyway glad you are back on track now and there is nothing wrong with changing a pattern, makes it your own. xx
ReplyDeleteLove your block variation......it is your block, after all, so you can finish it however you like!
ReplyDeleteglad you are feeling better and not so swoony... you should only get swoony over gnomes.... lovely sewing.. I like your postcard and your block variation... now why am I not surprised there are hexies!
ReplyDeleteHugz
Pleased your woosyness is gone and you could again stitch and read.
ReplyDeleteGreat progress on both your Postcard and UFO challenge.Good chose to add hexies. Adds a Michelle touch.
Oh dear, that doesn't sound like a nice experience, do hope things are much better now.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are feeling better. Love your blocks, the hexies work really well there. Hugs,xx
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you have been unwell and hopefully things are much better now ...loving your blocks xx
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear you have not been your usual self, hope the world is steady again now. Good idea with the hexies, always good to put your own slant on a project. The blocks are beautiful. Some tood reading there.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are getting back to normal after your swooning. I don't think there is anything wrong with putting your own spin on designs, it is your project after all.
ReplyDeleteOh Michelle I am so sorry to hear that you have been unwell,but I am happy that you are feeling better now. I love seeing all your beautiful work,well done my friend,I have had no internet,so I am glad it's back,lol xx
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you are better!
ReplyDeletePatterns are just a guide - in my book - as you know!
Terrible up north - so glad everyone I know up there (especially my 37 week pregnant daughter) are all OK...but so devastating for those with no home or no possessions left - and now the farmers have flood after years of drought.
So pleased you are back on track. That must be very frustrating. You definitely must be feeling good because your stitching is looking delightful.
ReplyDeleteIt is annoying not even be able to read. That's the second Graham Norton book for you. Was it as good as the first ?
Love your work, hope you feel better, love the hexies on the block, they look good :)
ReplyDeleteI am loving your version of the Floral Bouquet quilt...and yes, I agree, the hexies down the side are a great improvement on the odd looking blocks in the original. (Yes I have the book, yes it's on my to-do list!!!!!!!) Sorry to hear you weren't very well, I hope it's well and truely in the past now :-)
