Our last Friday Night get together for 2020, many thanks to Wendy for organising us and I understand there are changes afoot for 2021! Pop over to Wendy's blog here to see who else took part and links to their blogs.
So, what should I work on? Which of my WIP's shall I pull out for the evening? Hmmm, I know! I'll start something new! Well, when in doubt......
As it happens a new Hatched and Patched newsletter dropped into my inbox this week including this delightful freebie by Anni Downs.
How appropriate. I soon had it traced out and after basting a few more leaves for my tablecloth (pennance! but they should be the last ones) I got out my thread boxes and started stitching.
Not a huge amount done but I am blaming that on distracting TV!
No idea what I shall do with it yet but I shall enjoy getting it stitched up.
In other news, quilting of the Irish Chain on my Red Manor House continues. The weather has been up and down - wet again today. We are allowed out again without completeing a form to say why we are out - but this has been replaced by an 8pm -6am curfew. Doesnt affect us as we rarely go out at night. Pubs and restaurants remain closed.
Well, on that gloomy note, I hope you all have a good week!
I don’t know how I’ve missed these last two posts! Your sketchbooks look so enjoyable to work in. Having several to choose from is a great idea so that you aren’t waiting days to play with art in them. Your quilting looks so wonderful. A bit of stitching here and a bit of stitching there and the next thing you know it is finished. I love seeing your advent calendar in action. It is such a unique idea for advent.
