FnwFs for April..

As it was the first Friday of the month it was time to join Cheryll for FnwFs . I always enjoy these nights as I like to get organised to sew my different monthly blocks.

 

For April Angela choose RED. So I got out my reds and made two FISH blocks and two HST nine patches.

Then onto the Aussie Hero blocks….

Later in the evening I stitched a few more leaves on the Temperature Tree.

We’ve had really hot weather here and I noticed the bird bath I have on our front verandah needed filling everyday which is unusual. This morning I heard a noise and when I pulled back the curtain I discovered why the bird bath needed filling.

How special to see the kangaroos come and visit and enjoy a drink this morning…..

Must away now and to have some lunch

Happy Stitching….

My Temperature Tree ..

Thought it was time to do an update on my Temperature Tree and as it was 45 degrees Celsius here today 

I’ll be adding another bright red leaf on the March branch . 

I do hope it’s cools down soon as it is supposed to be Autumn…

Must away and pop the kettle on,

 

Happy Stitching ,

Sewing with friends.

Cheryll had an extra FnwFs and our Patchwork group is having our SAHR this weekend. So nice to sew along with both my virtual and the ladies from Patch. 

Last night i appliquéd some blocks which I’ll make into a new quilt for Lacy.

And today I’m working on another section of “Wonderer’s Wife”

Must away now and get on with sewing

Happy Stiching,

FnwFs for March

As it was the first Friday of the month it was time to join Cheryll and friends for FnwFs

First I finished off my great grandson’s Easter place mat.

Then added the last of  the pieces to my La Passacaglia block. (now to audition the fabric for the next one )

I also spent some time stitching a few leaves on my Temperature Tree 

Must away now and see what others worked on….

Happy Stitching 

Hugs Maria 💕

Done and dusted.

I spent most of this week in the Cave and got my Fish blocks for RSC with Angela done as well as my 

# 2  Chookshed Challenge

I took a photo of this fella several times but background fabric isn’t true to colour?? 

After seeing Janice’s Split Nine Patch blocks I decided to make some of these for my Second RSC blocks

Thanks Lou, it’s been fixed ..👍

Here’s my # 2 Chookshed Challenge. “It’s a Dogs Life “ by Lynette Anderson.

Even though I have done my challenges for March I have plenty to work like the Aussie Hero blocks, an Easter 🐣 Placemat for my GGS ,the Temperature Tree etc ………..

Must away now ,tidy the Cave and get showered ready for bed…..

Stay safe all,

Hugs.  Maria 💖

March Challenge No..

For March Chookshed Challenge the number Deana has chosen is # 2…. For me that’s to work on my La Passacaglia blocks .

I may swap it for a different number or do some work on them and also try to play with another project ?

Must away and pop on the kettle for a cuppa.

Happy stitching 🧵 

Hugs. Maria 💖
