Stitching News

 There are lots of projects being made that I can't show you pictures of yet. It's so close to sewing prevention season that folk are rallying to get their gifting projects finished in time. From Festive Stockings made from pre-printed panels to full patchwork quilts... we have them all in progress. Even me, my very good self, I have a secret project!

Beano spent most of her day in class quilting the beautiful Tilda fabrics, Log Cabin quilt. As with all quilt quilting, it's good to get up and move around during the process to stop the old body from seizing up, cups of tea help too, I believe. Not much more to go now on this quilt.

Princess Jackie also spent the day quilting. She's quilting 'In The Ditch' to show off the big circles created as a secondary pattern with this design. Tri-Recs rulers are so clever.

Josie is making a few Christmas Mug Rugs from a Patchsmith book. There's a lot of little detail in some of the pictures so they're great for using up little fabric scraps.

This Sunday, 27th November, we have the last Checkley Sunday Sewday of this year. There are still a few places left if you'd like to come and join us, just get in touch. It's from 9.30am until 3.30pm. It's £20 per person, which includes refreshments all day and a lovely, and rather tasty, light lunch.
