Sunday Sewing......

I'm still here......but as I've only been working  ( had to fill in on my day off ) and 

not sewing I've not had anything to show. 

I did get some sewing done today.......

These three blocks .......

So I now have seven done. 

Friday DH and Jacob went fishing......

......and Jacob caught this shark. 

They weren't to sure what type it was....Jacob even gave it a kiss as he threw it back. 

I got in 50kms on the bike for the week.....I give myself the weekends off. 

Well I'd better get to bed as I have to be at work at 7am.....did a swap as we have a birthday tea tomorrow night. 

Until Next Time. 

Some Shopping.......

Yesterday I went to spotlight and picked up a few things.......

Some fat quarters on sale....!

I also got Rainbow Loom bands......the proper ones......not like the cheap ones I had. 

Now I can play.......

These came too......

I still haven't had a good read of them yet. 

Until Next Time. 

Tumbling Along........,

.......and I forgot to take a photo. 

I've sewn row 4 and attached it to the other 3......so far so good !!

I also made 2 astrix blocks too. 

This one is colour coordinated......!!

Just can't help myself.....

Kylie picked the colours for this one....not the fabrics though. 

We FaceTimed for a bit this afternoon. 

And the 4 blocks so far........

I'm not sure how big this quilt will be.....we will just wait and see. 

I must do more ninepatches too.........

Until Next Time. 

Some Sewing On Saturday.........

This morning before work I sewed the third row of my tumbler to the other two rows. 

I also pressed it.......and put the next row in a pile ready to sew. 

The last few days have been working days and yesterday I was just lazy and made a loom band bracelet and did some reading. 

It is a great time waster..........

My next issue of Homespun came........

Mum has been sewing an Irish Chain for my brother.........

I have had the fabrics for years and mum took them when we moved and said she would make it up for him. 

It's all Thimbleberries fabrics. 

Hopefully I get out of the lazy's tomorrow and sew more tumblers. 

I rode a total of 50 kms last week......

Until Next Time. 

I've Been Sewing.......

Yesterday morning while DH was sleeping.......I got stuck into my bright tumbler quilt. 

I've 2 rows together......

And I've finished the third today. 

It's now pinning time. 

The rows fit together really well and the seams meet......!!

Which makes me happy. . . .

So 3 rows down and 17 to go......lol. !!

They might get it for their first wedding anniversary .......lol !!!!!!!

And because I could..... I made this also today.....

This is what all my 7" squares and the 1" strips are for. 

I'm going to make an astrix quilt. 

I have had this one made for years......about time I added to it. 

Until Next Time. 

Sunday Sewing........

Friday I FaceTimed with Kylie for a while and I got the rest of my fabric ironed.......

And I had to go to work as someone didn't turn up. 

Yesterday was just a work day........

Today I got my fabrics cut......

My pile of tumblers.......

I've one row together and another half done. 

Tonight I've been watching  'Seven Brides for Seven Brothers'

Just love the patchwork dresses that they wear.......

Until Next Time. 

Stuff.........

Yesterday was a rearranging day for our living area. 

DH and I moved and cleaned behind and under just about everything.......now we just have to get used to it. 

We watched 3 episodes 5-7 of season 4 of Game Of Thrones.......

It's going to be hard to wait for next season. 

Today my brother called in.......

I cut my 7" strips into squares .......

The electrician came to fix our reoccurring problem......

My roll of batting came......now I can get some quilting done. 

And then off to work for a very busy night....!

My feet hurt..........

:((

I rode 12kms yesterday and today. 

I might have sewing related stuff to show tomorrow. 

Until Next Time. 

A Busy Morning......

Yesterday was spent doing chores around the house ........ and then it was off to work. 

So yesterday was a boring day. 

I did ride 12kms though and I did it in good time. 

This morning was an early one for us all. 

Jacob had an appointment at 9am half an hour away so it was a rushed morning. 

Then we dropped off DH's swag to his sister so our niece could borrow it for school camp. 

Then off to my chiropractor appointment. 

Then to the supermarket for a few things. 

As DH has a bad cold and feels like crap we crashed on the lounge and watched the first 4 episodes of season 4 of Game Of Thrones. 

OMG......!!!!!!!!

As I've not read the books , I was so glad someone met with a grizzly death. 

Aren't I a bloodthirsty thing ?

But it was so good !!!!!!!

No sewing today.....but I did cut the few pieces I ironed the other day. 

I've still lots to iron. 

I didn't get in my ride today........

Until Next Time. 

Some Sunday Sewing.........

Yesterday I slept in .......I nearly died !!!

9.40am......

But I had interrupted sleep with DH coming home in the wee hours and the other reasons one gets up in the night for........I woke at 7.30 am and got back in bed thinking I won't go back to sleep......but I did !!

It was so good. 

I didn't do much yesterday other than read the paper and pick up Zachary's friend to stay over. 

Then it was off to work. 

I didn't sleep as late today. 

DH got home at 8.30am so I had an earlier morning. 

So it was a tip toe through the house day. 

I got around to some ironing and I finished these 2 blocks......

And the 2 together. 

I've now 12 left to finish. 

I've had a headache all day so I couldn't be bothered doing much else. 

Until Next Time.
