FNWF

Hi everyone,

I enjoyed a productive night of stitching and a couple of other things with you.



I sewed the last four rows of squares on to complete this baby quilt flimsy. It is made of 4" squares, all scraps, and the rows are 9x9.


I hope you enjoyed the BEEGEES concert.  This is my fave Friday night sewing music :)


I spent some time cutting out lots of little pieces for a Christmas dolly which I cannot show yet because the person it is for is very observant :) This is why the fabric is wrong side up too.


I  put some fabric in some tea to dye it.


Then I remembered I had this snow white piece of flannel and I wanted to tea dye it too.


Girl 8 likes to cuddle the foot pedal of my sewing machine. When she moves, I move it back where it goes.   Thank you Cheryll for hosting this lovely evening. xx debbie

    1. Thank you Leanne. I've made so many quilts since the 70's, but I always come back to simple patchwork as my favourite. xx debbie

  9. What a productive Friday night you had, the quilt is lovely and I like how you even had the fabric wrong side up so as not to spoil the surprise.

  12. Hello my beautiful friend, how are you. I often think of you and wonder what you are up to. Glad to see you are still in australia. We were reminiscing in facebook about the old forum days and I mentioned i would love to know how you were. De Tanzer sent me a message and then I realised she was your De. I still have your beautiful quilted mini quilt and the little button doll.
