Chookshed Party Time

Chookyblue is having a Chookshed Party this weekend - and has invited all to participate via blogland.



Who needs an excuse to sew?? especially on a Friday night ???

I indulged in a bit of cross stitch whilst watching Better Homes & Gardens



Then into SSS I drifted...

I decided to put all the blocks for Jingle All the Way up to work out what extra bits need to go where - naturally I could have stuck to the pattern and the kit - but - me?? nah - I do like to challenge myself!!!!

I started here:

and sewed a few together and cut some of the extra bits and stuck them up on the design "wall".

I would say to Chooky & friends - Have a great time!!! - but I know they will be - drinks, nibbles, good food & good company and hopefully plenty of sewing.
Tomorrow is Group #1 (Loose Threads) sewing day so more sewing on the horizon.

Looks like a hoot. One day I might (note "might") join Blogland. I will just make sure I have a double scotch (no water) and a double scotch chaser (no water) beside me when I start. Computers and I are not best of friends.
One must always have a plan, one day ...........
