Last September Finishes & Giveaway Tomorrow!

Ok, here are some last finishes for this month.

Shelley finished this sweet fairy:

She is blue, so of course I love her :)

I finished the chookies and tea wallets, (picture in previous post), so that makes 5 more for me - yay!

Alice has finished her turkey wall hanging:

Yay! Love the autumn colors!

Di joined us this month and finished this gorgeous quilt for her library:

Fiona finished this Aussie Christmas table runner:

Isn't it pretty?

You know, I think we all did really well this month. I love the block challenge because without it I probably wouldn't have gotten those 6 blocks done. It was just the nudge I needed.

Now I won't be posting the winner of this month until sometime next week, because, tomorrow is the Fall into Fall Giveaway!! I keep forgetting to tell you about it... even though I have had this little guy in my sidebar for a while:

Come back tomorrow and see what I will be giving away! There are LOTS of blogs particpating in this giveaway, over a hundred I think, so we shall be doing lots of blog hopping over the next few days!

No more posts for today... I think I have overblogged, but even if I bored you all to death, I did have fun blogging my day :)

See you all tomorrow!!!!

Blogging my day #7 - Done

After a lovely dinner with my man... I finished the next project - a raw edge gardening apron! I think I am going to have to make a few more of these... it was quick and easy.

And here are the chookies and tea bag wallets with their buttons on:


I think that is all my sewing for today... but in a bit I shall be posting some more finishes from our little Finishing Stitches group.

Blogging my day #6 - Getting there

It's coming together slowly... I think it is going to be good....

Cameron has come home and is taking me OUT to dinner :) Have I ever told you that I love having a husband who takes me out to dinner?!

I'll be back later ........ :)

Blogging my day #5 - Next project

I've got this:

With a touch of this:



And even I don't know what it is going to be exactly... I have an end product in mind, but am making it up as I go along....

I'll be back.....

Bogging my day #4 - Cuppa time!

Had a lovely, lovely nap - could have slept for much longer but someone decided to mow the lawn next door my window... and I woke up. Just as well, because I have to sew, right?!

After every nap one must have a cuppa, so I am sitting here with my feet up and having my cup of tea.... and putting some buttons onto a few ufo's that have been waiting for me....


Just a few more sips of tea and some more buttons sewn on and then back to the sewing room :)

Blogging my day #3 - Naptime...

Ok, mystery project done! But first I had sewing room delivery pizza:


After eating all those yummy anchovies hiding under the melted cheese, I kept working on my project and finished it:


A view inside:


Way back at the beginning of the year, Alice bought me the pattern for Busy Bee Teacup Holder for my birthday. I have now finally made one, but just did a plain pocket instead of the stitchery. I will do one with the stitchery one day, but for now, this is still cute I think.

Off for a nanny nap... I'll be back later to work on my next project... One down, ... how many more to go I wonder....?!

Blogging my day #2

I have the mystery pieces quilted and ready to sew together:


I quilted the pieces using my all time favorite little flowery loopy pattern. I do like it :)

So, does anyone know yet what it is going to be?!

While I'm playing in the sewing room, Elizabeth is playing with this in the kitchen:


Have I ever told you that I love having a teenage daughter who cooks?! Can't wait for lunch.... :)
