36

Civil War quilt blocks are
now completed

Yesterday the weather man was spot on

we got 57 mm's of rain in just under 24 hours

perfect stitching weather

the girlies watched movies

I got to sew ALL DAY


sorry about the 2 photos but this is what my design wall
looks like at the moment and blogger won't post them
side by side for me :(

I need to change the 2nd row # 6 block
the background needs to blend in a
bit more, atm it sticks out.

Today was a gorgeous if not windy day
so
I weeded a garden bed today and we now have a
small vege patch with

sweetcorn
2 x chillies
2 x capsicum
snow peas
lettuce
bok choy

and then in another bed we have 4 different varities
of tomatoes.

I have also finished block 5 of
In My Garden

I am just adding the fence 'rails and nails'
the palings are all done and so is the gate

Friday night I stitched all the embroidery on the other 4
blocks, and added the needleturn bits that hadn't been done

dh printed some patterns for me at work yesterday
I also found the pattern online for a quilt I started at the begining
of the year, using yummy Park Avenue fabric, the original pattern went awol
in the move so I printed it
off and tomorrow will pull out all my bits and see where I am
up to, after the house gets a good clean between the rain, the dog
and the kids its much needed :)
