FNWF - June

Friday night -Thanks to Cheryll  who hosts Friday Night with Friends - another cyber sewing opportunity...lost a bit of time eating out...and maybe a nanna nap as well...so not a lot to show...I did get this last block traced - so I can cross it off my list for last weekend....

I also finished a knitted square ready to hand over (at the next blog meet) to Maria who spends a lot of her time making up blankets for Brisbane's needy.   Pretty simple - a 10" square in 8 ply garter stitch.
Pop over here to see what everyone else got up to - probably a lot more than me!
Thanks Cheryll for hosting us - and providing the much needed encouragement.

 But Saturday was another sewing day so I made a lot of progress stitching that block, 
and on Saturday night I prepared all the snow for my North Pole blocks - I will leave attaching it til I am ready to join all the blocks so I can make sure all the snow lines up...I don't want any snow drifts!!  But I think I can cross off the two remaining jobs from last weekends list...must be time for another list....LOL


Happy long weekend to most!

    I think the stitchery is going to look great, Do you use a light box? I forgot to trace and had nothing to do until Saturday when the sun came up!!!

    A night well spent Susan. I recognise that stitchery tracing as I made that quilt some years ago.

    We all so loathe prepararion but it does make way for a nicer finish. Love the stitchery that you are about to start. Is it part of a quilt??

    That stitchery design looks gorgeous... can't wait to watch your progress on it. There is nothing quite like a god meal and a nap in my book.
