FNSI for August
Many thanks Wendy for inviting us to join you again for a stitchy evening - see what everyone was working on here
Friday was a cooler day for us and so much of my time was spent in the garden. But I found an hour in the afternoon to start basting some shapes for my new applique project.
Fiddly small pieces! This project deserves a post of it's own so watch this space.
After an early fish and chip supper sitting outside a local bar we came home to watch another exciting T20 Blast match. Of course I had some sewing on the go too. I have started work on a new crazy block and this is how it looked at the beginning of the evening.
And here it is after I had added some silk and organza ribbon embellishments.
Lots more to do as I plan to pack this with embroidery, but I am enjoying this very much.
Enjoy your weekend.
