FNSI for September





Once again many thanks to Wendy of Sugarlane Designs for inviting us - just click on the link to go and see what everyone has been sewing.

I have been sewing this afternoon along with my Australian friends as we are going out this evening - there is a certain World Cup about to start and a big screen that is calling to Philip!

So I have spent the afternoon finishing off my CQJP block for the month - finished nice and early so I can get on with some more projects and some Christmas sewing.

So here is my finished block


and of course a few close ups.






During my coffee break I watched the first lesson of Edyta Sitars new course on Craftsy which I treated myself to earlier in the week. Looking good so far.

Hope you all had a good evening.

  2. Beautiful - love the stitching and the colours are stunning. We are watching the rugby now and stressing about the ref awarding Fiji a try and then as they are about to take the conversion - the try played on the big screen and the ref changing his mind and taking the try off Fiji - never seen that before - very interesting. I am sure your Philip will have enjoyed the game. Bonus points for England who he is probably supporting. Fun... fun....

  8. Hello Lin. Like I have said before, it is such a joy seeing your Crazy blocks, I love every one of them, your embroidery is gorgeous.
    I also treated myself with Edyta's new course, but have not started yet, have to finish hers "Tree of Life" first, a scrappy quilt I'm making for my daughter.
    Hope you and Philippe enjoyed the game.
    Take care

  13. I love your block! I had already saved it from the CQJP blog for future inspiration. The bottom left corner and the rickrack seam and the couched part with the SRE flowers are all favorites from this block. Great one!

  18. What an awesome block!! I found myself staring at the spider in its web, such a neat addition. Have you taken a Craftsy class before? What do you think of them?
    Enjoy your week,
