Relaxing Weekend

The kids and I have had a lovely weekend relaxing in Geelong. It was nice to get away and spend some quality time together. A girl friend and her children joined us for one night also. We had a good catch up and the children entertained themselves quite well
I did manage a little stitching time and did some work on this Sanctuary block. This is one of nine which will form a lovely patchwork quilt.

I recently joined a Block of the month, for "Girls Day Out". This too, will be a lovely stitchery and patchwork quilt once complete. I couldn't help myself, I just had to get started!!! I will have to get busy and divide my time between the two.

Then there is also the New York Beauties, and some quilting to do and some binding to complete and, and, and ....!!!!! The list goes on. Hopefully extra sewing time this week as we have a meeting free week at school.

Stitcheries




A passion at the moment is completing stitcheries and then making them into quilts with various patchwork blocks. I enjoy the stitching and then the patchwork side as well. These flower blocks were great to take anywhere.
