Stitching News

Everyone seemed happy to be back in class. There was a lot to catch up on. I've been thoroughly investigated on all things to do with our 'retreat', especially the food. Would we go again? YES! but we can't as the folk who run the retreat are about to retire. The old me would have said that was absolutely un-accept -a-bubble but this new me (the one that went on holiday) says it's understand-a-bubble. Retirement is looking good to me, not any time soon, I have a lot of stock to deal with first, ha!

Jean Bean had to start again with her Wonky Stars. Not only has she lost the original, she had forgotten how to make them as well. It's never a problem to repeat the "how tos" so Beano was soon back on track. She is getting quite brave with some of her star 'wonks'. In the middle of the photo is Hairy McClary, the thread Pig, what an awful thing it is, but Beano would be lost without him.

Christabelle had sorted out all those thread ends, tied them off and threaded them through, properly. There looked to be about two million! Only a third of the quilting to go now so this quilt will be ready for gifting quite soon. 


Our Pam wanted to do a little mindless stitching. All of the energy had run out of her accuracy tank with over 40 Churn Dash blocks. Pam does enjoy a little scrappy bitty block making. She has quite a collection of them made up. Goodness only knows when Pam's 'Quilting To Do' list will stop growing!!
