FNSI

 

Friday night  was FNSI so I pulled out this Pin Cushion by Cinderberry Stitches.  Finsihed the stitching now just got to sew it up together later in the week.

Valentine's Day Swap from Simone

These are the beautiful gifts that Simone sent me in our swap.

Simone also made Angus a library bag (one was on my list for this weekend to make).  The material is dot to dot so hes having a great time doing it.  I'm sure no one is going to have the same one at school on Monday.

Thank you Simone for all your goodies, we love them all.

Valentine's Day Swap

My first swap for the year.  Anorina over at Samelia's Mum had a Valentine's Day Swap.  Simone was my partner, having found out a bit about her and her girls I decided to make a few things for her to share the love.

This is what I sent her

A close up of the cushion.  I have never made a cushion before loved how this turned out.

Friday night with friends

Last night was friday night with friends I started the handstiching on this table runner.  It is a Leanne house design that I got a while ago at a sewing day.  I will make another in christmas colours to go in the christmas box.

Friday night sewing

Last night I join in Friday night with Friends, I managed to finish sewing in the ends of a white baby blanket. I have a few friends having babies this year so I thought I better get busy knitting.

This one is in 12ply loved the diamond pattern.

Next was to sew some of the main hexi's for Rosalie Quinlan Best Friends Forever, I have some of the hand sewn blocks done so I need to get a lot of these ones put together to work on the layout.

I also traced off a stitchery for a swap that I am doing, pictures to come later.

All in all a good night looking forward to the next one.

New year new starts

This year I am going to join Friday night with Friends the first one is this friday.  Tommorrow I am going to get a few things and put them next to the machine ready to go.
