I really only did a bit on Friday Night - I joined you in spirit - but I needed to sort, clean and organise ready for my turn at hosting Loose Threads on Saturday.
Let's just say a combination of Friday Night and Satur - day saw this Gail Pan block finished.....I wish I could sew as fast as my friend (you know who you are....) but I suppose being hostess today meant I was up and down a fair bit - patterns to find, a few pages of "something" to copy, a pair of scissors to lend, morning & afternoon tea to set out.
But it was a great day - and lovely to catch up with one of our gang who spends months at a time travelling in a caravan - she finally received her Birthday present from last November!
So here is that block:
The actual pattern is to applique these onto blocks, but I will be using them as whole blocks...a bit like the Ruth's Quilt pattern I am also making.
Thanks to Cheryll for hosting the cyber party - I'm off to the World of Craft Expo in Brisbane tomorrow - maybe I will catch up with your progress during the week.

Hi Susan beautiful work my friend,loving the colours you are using for Ruth's quilt xx
Love your thread colour & fabrics. Hugs, xx
So pretty Susan. Sounds like a lovely get together. Enjoy the show xx
Nice work Susan. And cleaning is permitted at FNwF too...xox
Sounds like a productive time; that's a lovely block and the greeny blues look great with it. Fun to have everybody at your place :-)
They look terrific and the fabrics are a perfect match. I can’t wait to watch your progress.
Great fabrics and thread❤️❤️❤️
oh they are cute blocks and I like the fabrics you've chosen to go with them! It's been simply years since I've been to the Craft Expo!! It must have been around 2002 - the year we left Brisbane. I've never made it to the one in Melbourne (a 3.5 hr that I need to have coincide with 2 days off work to get enough time to be down to look at things) Enjoy!!
Stunning colours and stitchery blocks, they are gorgeous :)
Such pretty thread colour and the fabrics match perfectly Susan..
Bet you had a lovely day stitching with your friends..
How was the Expo ??
All of those blocks are really sweet. Your sewing day sounds like a lot of fun. I was sewing on Friday morning, as I was busy on Friday night... lol
Such pretty blocks Susan... and the fabrics to go with them are a great choice... I feel some very happy sewing ahead!
