I tried to get into my sewing room every day this week and managed to get lots done. First up, I finished the rest of my green blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. I have to look and see if there are enough darker green scraps to make a 5x5 HST block. I don't have a lot of dark green fabric in my stash.
Next up-- I shortened a pair of jeans for my husband. He received them as a Christmas gift and, now, he can wear them. I also added a hanging sleeve to my little sashiko wall hanging and it is now on display. I have two open wide zipper pouches to make as gifts and got one done. I picked the fabrics for the other one but did not have the right colour of zipper for it. I will pick up a zipper this week and get that one done. The sharp eyed among you might notice I have the fabrics in the wrong spots on this bag...the patterned material should have been on the top...oh well... I still like it!
The Funky Rooster stitching is down to three colours. I try to do a bit of work on this every day.
The colour of the month for our guild's colour challenge is pink. Here is my block. The bicycle fabric is fun.
A friend has a new baby girl so I made a cloth book from a panel for her.
Happy Valentine's Day! My husband and I went to see "Song Sung Blue" this afternoon for our Valentine date. Excellent movie...We went to a Neil Diamond concert several years ago. It was "so good, so good, so good..." The cookie came from the farmer's market this morning.
The backyard squirrel was up to his/her usual antics this week...
We had ice fog one morning this week which gave me opportunities for interesting pictures when I was out walking one morning.
Finn has decided to take up skiing... I'm not sure he will win any olympic medals though!
I will link up with Kathy, Frederique and the RSC group. Have a good week!
