My latest hand piecing project. Can you tell what it is yet? *laughs*


That's one quarter of the design so I have a fair bit of hand sewing to do. : ) I prefer to hand piece rather than hand quilt, hence why I have so many tops that need finishing.

So, why am I mad? : ) Well, I just started a new project and yet earlier I ordered some fabric for the next one, which will be a double wedding ring design! Back to stitching, then. À bi!

My 'Patisserie' charm packs arrived. : ) I can now choose the background fabric to make 'Flowers for Annabel' even though the pattern hasn't arrived yet. Clearly Global Priority is faster than First Class International. ; )

I drabbled 507 words to the set word for this week 'strip'. Having used canon characters (as requested), Mike has made it clear he's game. I tried one idea but another has just flitted across my neurones... One I like much better. Mmm, yeah... ; )

My sewing machine, my faithful Husqi 1, is gone for attention. Neither light comes on any more when I switch on and I'd put up with it, using a small table lamp at the rear of the work so I could see to sew. Then the reverse button died. I said a couple of naughty words (Fouaithe!) and worked around the problem. After all, I only need to sew backwards when applying a binding. In fact, most of the quilty things you've seen recently were made under the twin handicaps of no lights and no reverse. Yesterday, I decided that enough was enough and rang the shop. And that's the pixie in the potion.

Further to 'can you tell what it is yet?', now that both parts are pieced, it's obvious what it is. To me, gentle reader, but not to you, who are picspam-less. I want to keep this one under wraps until it's finished, even if the weather wasn't bloody awful, light-wise. I'm making a determined attempt to use up stash and so 'can you tell what it is yet?' uses up leftovers from Pale and Interesting.

Yesterday, I had goodies arrive from Fabric Shack. I tore into the GPE (Global Priority Envelope) in eager anticipation and was delighted but a little confused. The parcel was my second order. Had Customs yoinked the first b/c the value was over the limit? I pondered and knew I'd have to wait and see.

Today, goodies arrive in another GPE--Yay! It had escaped Customs b/c the lady had been kind to me. :D They shall certainly receive more of my custom! Ah, véthe-dgia, valet!

I'm very well pleased with my selections but they're in the queue. With 25 currently unfinished bits of quiltiness and 9 planned or cut, the last thing I need is to start something else!
