Friday Night Sew In


The months are rolling by and another Friday night has passed in the company of friends. Many thanks Wendy for getting us all together again. You can catch up with everyone here.

Well, I have very little to show I am afraid as I spent my afternoon working on some secret stitching and then in the evening I got out my crochet and made these.


The Persian Tiles crochet project that I kept in UK to work on while visiting Mum and Dad came back to France with me this summer and has been sitting in the cupboard.



As I have finished all the tiles and just need to make the joining pieces I thought that it was about time that it was completed. So this is my evening task for the coming week.

In other news I have completed another round of my 1797 Revisited.


And I have the next round of turquoise cut out. So if I get fed up with crocheting tiles together I can always baste a few hexies!

Hope you are having a good weekend.

  2. The crochet projects looks lovely...
    1797 is growing and now each row will take longer to stitch.

  3. It will nice to see your tiles joined together. That's an advantage of having more projects on a go, you can swap them when you get fed up with one. :-)

  7. Hexies are so comforting! When life gets tough, baste a few hexies and life will settle itself out. Then back to the grindstone of Persian Tiles! Lol! All beautiful!!

  16. Adore your Red Manor House, Lin. Also interested in these Persian tile crochet blocks. As well as your diamonds/hexies. As you can see I love all that you work on! Happy Stitching from me!

  17. The thing that I noticed about both your projects (both of which I just love) is they are complex designs. Which makes them so intriguing. Great color choices too. I can't wait to see the next round of turquoise.

  18. Hi Lin, your tiles crochet will be magnificent when all joined. I can nearly visualise :D)
    I'm loving your hexies quilting (sorry if I'm using the wrong terms.. not a crocheter or a quilter - but I certainly appreciate all the work that goes into each piece) xx

  21. Well done getting to the end of the crocheted blanket. I have done all those squares but have only one octogon half done. I had difficulty working out how to do those crosses and they are a bit tight. Mine is the coloured version. Looking forward to seeing it finished. Thanks for reminding me to get mine out again lol.
