Fireworks, Harbour, Blue, Pink, Night

Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!



Putting aside the debate about Fireworks - 
Sydney Harbour is such a beautiful backdrop to a fireworks show.

Gosh....it's hard to believe the year of 2020 is here...though at the rate the bush fires are going in Australia, I do wonder how long we will be here.....😢.
Fortunately I live in "suburbia" and am not affected - there are no nearby fires and our air quality has only been smoky for a few days and is all OK for now.


Never the less....it's sewing time.  I am on a break from work - returning next Monday...and have tried to make the most of my time sewing . . .the list for this year is already full!

Tonight I worked on these:
The photo is actually upside down - 
but I guess it doesn't matter!

Queensland Quilters Night Group have requested those who want to - to make wonky blocks using the teal supplied.  They requested no trimming back to size (8 1/2")...so they look very odd.  They were relatively quick and easy to do - certainly no nesting seams etc!!!

I am going to try to be more diligent in visiting other cyber friends who sewed....no promises!!!

But thanks to Cheryll for continuing to motivate us for another year.  Pop over here to visit all the other cyber sewers!!!

Great blocks Susan. The fireworks did look impressive, but I wonder about the huge cost when there is so much drought and fire damage.

Your blocks look fantastic. Love the turquoise/blue you've used (my favourite colour).
The fireworks were spectacular.
