FNSI - July

Well, it is a week early - but Wendy decided to have a FNSI & a Christmas in July FNSI next week (well, I think that is how it's working.....)

So, this Friday, apart from having a very long sleep-in due to a head cold.....I worked on a quilt for Miss Peyton for her second birthday.  It's a bit late as her birthday is today (Friday)...but a 2 yo doesn't know Nana is late and really doesn't understand a birthday anyway.  On top of that - her little sister was born the day before - so Mum is in hospital with a strange-looking thing in her arms.   I am sure she is quite perplexed, but seems to be taking it in her stride.

So, for my sewing . . . .I threaded numerous ends in from the quilting on this, added a few more straight lines of quilting and sewed the binding on.



Hopefully, I will get the hand-sewing part done over the weekend and take some pictures.

Thanks Wendy - always fun to gather for a FNSI and all the other lovely crafters.

Peyton looks like she will make a good big sister. Best wishes to the new bub and her parents. Threading in ends is such a tedious job.
