FNWF - August

A great way to finish off the working week - a cyber sewing party!!

I made another taggie for a friend of DD1 - it took me a few attempts to get one that looked OK enough to gift - it is obvious that I am no good with 2 layers of minkee so its one minkee and one flannel going forward.   I've also been told that the ribbons I was using frayed very quickly - so not more of that stuff - now using the grainier ones and lots of ric rac.


I love this minkee I picked up recently at half price.

I also prepped two pieced blocks for my Jingle All the Way quilt - I hope to work on that when I'm on retreat....7 sleeps to go!!   (and only 3 work days....)

I have a sewing day tomorrow (Saturday) as well, so more sewing is on the horizon.
Thanks Cheryl for hosting us again - no matter where you  are at the moment!!
