Caught Up!

March and April blocks for the Some Kind of Wonderful Stitch-a-Long.

I didnt think I was ever going to catch up on these ones!  Still debating the flowers on the tree.

Made a start on the sewing block  too.

Inspiration..........

Just a couple of finishes in the sewing room this weekend.

First up a bunting to offer some inspiration......




and then this bird button which was sent to me as a gift added to a mini easel.  I loved these mini easels when I saw them but was unsure what to use them for.  The canvas that comes with the easel only measures 2.5"x3".


Its a public holiday here today - Labour Day - so hopefully I will get to spend a bit more time sewing and catch up on my Some Kind of Wonderful Blocks.

Just a Peak

Just a peak into the craft room. 



Most of the crafty bits have been relocated and I have even been in there today working on a secret project.  This is what you see when you walk into the room and this beautiful tin trunk was my birthday present from my wonderful hubby!  It is now home to my batting supply.

There is still a little to be done.........tidying and sorting the little bits and then I can take some more pics to share with you all!

Under Construction


Desk relocated........mammoth effort that was!  First it had to be empty with nothing on top (now that was an effort in itself).  Then the top was removed and the desk was cut in half.........

It now has its first recoat of varnish and the window is back in where it belongs!  All the sewing gear is still in the lounge room just all over the floor!

Under Construction

The new sewing room.  The fat quarter shelf is up.  The trim is painted (first coat - second tomorrow).



This room was the sleep out where Cam bunked when he came over.  He has now relocated to a different room.

The desk from the lounge room will be disassembled and moved probably next weekend.

Im excited!!!  This will be the very first time that I have had a dedicated sewing/crafting space!

Ruffles

This is the latest finish in the Re-De-Zines' house........my first ruffle scarf..........so simple to knit. 


This is a present for a friend of Bec's.  Plan to do another in cream tones for Mum for Mother's Day.
