My brain is a bit splattered at the moment . . lots of stuff happening and I am probably more stressed than I realise....or care to admit.
I took the dog for a walk tonight - something my husband usually does - and instead of dropping the "doggy poo" bag in the bin - I threw in my keys.....Not a pleasant experience to retrieve them - but fortunately, there was a stick nearby with a handy dandy little bit sticking out at the end. I retrieved them and picked them up in a clean doggy bag and sterilised them when I got back home.
But onto more pleasant things.

To cut a long story short we went to DD2's place for a pizza dinner & the AFL.
DH's team were playing DD2's team.
I am not into watching sport..especially football, so I sat in the corner with my light and my glue stick. I had cut the hexies to make 11 half inch hexie flowers.....for a project that I just had to get into because everyone else was . . .apparently. It's a BOM - Letters to My Daughter (though it may be Letters to my Granddaughter - due in July) - designed by Natalie Bird and made available through Homespun.
In total there are 13 hexie flowers needed - though only a couple for this month, but I thought I may as well go ahead and prep them all...well almost all . . .LOL...so this where I got to tonight.

BY the way in case you care - DH's team narrowly beat DD2's team...it was an interesting game ...if you like that kind of thing - better than a walkover!...Obviously a lot of wrong calls by the referree.
So, even if it wasn't a formal Friday Night for Sewing - I did and I hope you got to do something you enjoy doing.
YAY - it's the weekend and next week is a short week. Boy - do I have a lot of sewing planned for Easter . . . shame its only 4 days...I could do with 4 weeks!

Hahaha! Even though it wasn’t the usual FnWFs or FNSI you had fun doing your hexies...
I’m not a footy fan either....
We should make every Friday night a sewing night!!!!!! Good progress with your hexies. I do not watch footy either.
You and me both... I call most Friday nights..>Friday Night Sewing<...lol
Love the little hexie quilt too. The colours are pretty...xox
Hubby was watching the game last night too, got a bit loud at one stage 😄. Similar comments were made about the referee here too! Great hexie creating, love the colours you are using.
I enjoy sports being on as it means I can just curl up and sew and ignore the world! But I don't really watch it. Lovely hexies, and congratulations on your granddaughter! x
Had to laugh when I read about your keys! Sorry but you told the story well. Glad you got some hexie basting done - I am not really a sports fan so a night of football/rugby/golf? ugh, means more sewing done! xx
Oh no with the keys!!! yucko ... but a bit of a funny6 story....
hope you are okay and not gettign too stressed out... more sewing time is needed...

I intend making that quilt too, but still have to make a start. It is a great idea to get all the hexies prepped at once. Good luck with your Easter stitching plans. They sound like mine, and then other activities seem to get added to the mix as well. I’m not sure that all that much stitching will happen. I hope things settle down a bit for you soon.
you did get some good prep done while they were watching the footy......
Glad you managed to retrieve the keys without tooo much drama!
