Whew! What a busy week but all really enjoyable. Suffice to say I have not been at home for a full day all week so the housework has not been done and I have spent most of today catching up with the ironing - where does it all appear from? I'm sure I didn't put that many loads of washing in the machine.
Never mind, although I have been out during the day I have managed a few evenings sewing and relaxing in front of my sewing machine. I have sewn together a very quick and easy baby playmat, still to be sandwiched and quilted.
At the beginning of the week I completed top number one from the Best of Morris jelly roll using the blue strips, and made a good start to number 2 the pink version.
My new roll of batting arrived and this afternoon I unpacked it
And have managed to cut pieces for the Bunting Quilt, the Playmat and the 2 Morris quilts. The first to be sandwiched will be the Bunting Quilt. A. has been very patient in waiting for me to put this quilt together so this week I will be concentrating on sandwiching and starting the quilting. This will take a few sessions in front of the machine as it's about 75 x 60ins. I think I will be keeping the quilting simple on this one and echoing the bunting shapes.
Well that's coffee break over so I will up load this to blogger and then I better go and see what's next on my To Do list. Have an enjoyable week and hopefully you too will find some time to relax and stitch.
