Stitching News

Gail's gifting stocking will be finished in very good time for Sewing Prevention Season... which seems to have already started in my home!!! I am sure Barney will love his Christmas Stocking, even empty.

This is Gail's Super Sampler made with blocks in the Jelly Roll Sampler Book... but with yardage (meterage actually). Gail's quilting all of the sashing strips first... then she will decide how to quilt each block.

Time for tooting!!! Toot toot toot for Princess Jackie's fabulous and finished, colourful Cockerels quilt. Jackie is pondering whether or not this should be entered into the Uttoxeter Quilt Show 2017... What do you think?

Lena finished her brand new antique Christmas Panel. She can't remember how long she's owned this panel... Does anyone else know? It's not really important as for now, it qualifies as a Fabulous Finish... toot toot toot! 

I know we love sewing, whether by hand or by machine... it's a winner...
BUT I cannot recommend though... sewing your hand with your sewing machine... Farmer Lynda says It Hurts!!! ha ha ha

Lots of people are making these Quick Table Toppers. This one is being sandwiched and it belongs to Sister Susie... who found the fabrics in her secret stash! So she says.

All Day Di has decided to make a quilt-let for every month using the book Count On It by Nancy Halvorsen... aren't Di's quilts fabulous.... It's such a lovely book.

Sporty Sue was able to reorganise my tables to make a large quilt sandwich... if no-one else comes to Quilt Club you have to take advantage of the situation!! I really love this design and you won't believe how easy it is to make. 12-ish Fat Quarters plus the Black! I love it. 
You might be thinking...
Well, there's not much news on Angie's blog this week... are you?
That's the way it happens when there's a lot of secret sewing going on. I can't be showing you what some ladies and gents are making... even though I know you won't tell and the secret would be safe between just the two of us.... I promised you see.
