I'm excited - not because I love AFL - or am keen to watch it - BUT it does mean DH doesn't want to go out to eat - wants a quick easy meal...and ...a long story ...although we have two TVs - the "other" one is in a room with no lounge chairs - and really - he does look pretty silly sitting in an empty room on a straight backed chair....so I have relinquished watching TV for the comfort of my Sewing Space.
One good thing about football season is that it means the weather should be cooling down - but alas Mother Nature has forgotten to look at the calendar and is about to spring a 34C day on us.
I put my time to good use - added the borders to a baby quilt for a friend's daughter, ready to pin on Sunday,
and made the first block for my "Road Trip" quilt:
I think I need a better photo - maybe in the daytime!
I am dragging the chain a bit on this project - what with the finger op and making baby quilts and "other important stuff" whatever that was, it has been hard to focus on this one...but hopefully if I can find some time to trace a few blocks (a job I HATE) I can get into gear.

PS: Thankfully - the right team won!
and a bonus: DH is off the the Brisbane Lions game at the Gabba tomorrow night - so more sewing time....yay again!!!

My hubby is in the lounge each night and I have a TV in my Cave where I escape to....
Sweet baby quilt. You've made a good start on your Postcards and maybe tomorrow night you'll get some traced.....
That's the perfect answer on a footy Friday night.
& That's why we have sewing rooms... xox
Ohhh and a great start to your postcard quilt too... xox
If the men are happy then we will be too. Great quilt and good to see your postcards block....well done.
haha... I love how you view the footy season.... you did well, the quilt looks lovely and so does your block.... I don't like tracing that much either....

It's a bit the same here now the NRL season has started. Good luck with progressing your projects. I'm sure you will make some progress at Baradine.
