FNWF - August

August???   Already????

That is so scary - I have now been working from home since mid-March - almost 5 months....OMGOSH.

Friday Night - Sewing Night with friends - the usual - a bit of TV - Better Homes & Gardens - and Fast Ed did some amazing sounding Lamb Shanks - so I may need to try them,...I crocheted a bit - in between messaging several people including DD2 who was driving up to Townsville with her fiance and dog....(it's always a relief when they get there safely.)

Then into Susan's Sewing Space - Retreat is coming up - in fact, two retreats - almost back to back - so lots of preparation going on.
I can't show all of it - some SWB (Secret Women's Busines) going on . . .but I was lucky with Bobbin Lotto tonight!

I can show this - this is a project I plan on progressing.  It may end up being too big to finish off, as I am only taking a small machine and table space is limited.  The blocks are labeled so I hope I get them all going in the correct direction.  I still need to cut 70 1" x 6.5" strips and 70 1.5" x 6.5" strips so I can do a QAYG method.

I think I'm starting to get excited about going - we are lucky - considering everything - that we can still go to both of these retreats.  Some things will not be the same - but we are all grateful that our yearly event is still happening.  More on that at retreat!

Thanks for the virtual company - Thanks Cheryll for keeping us on track with sewing & blog posting.

mmmm - is anyone else on the new Blogger???   I am not liking the new Labels selection - obviously, no User Validation as we call it... Not Happy Jan!

I provided feedback - by clicking on the ? at the top of the Blog post screen - if you don't like it - tell them - the more of us who do - the better the end result.....Also if you are looking for it - the option to go back to your blog is at the bottom of the list of options on the left-hand side....
Suggestion: stay with the legacy product until you have to move....

FNWF - August

I was off to a late start - I stayed in the city to get my nails & pedicure done . . .but I did crochet a bit whilst my feet were being "tidied up"

As I am off to retreat next Friday (yikes - how can it be so soon???) I have plenty to do:

I cut a pile of rectangles...but decided some of the fabrics I had put aside were not right -may need a quick shopping trip to correct that

And I got out the threads I need to finish off some applique - hopefully before Thursday night ....I can see a few late nights coming up.

 Thanks for your company everyone - I hope you were all busy little bees!

Thanks Cheryll for the group hug and motivation.
