The "it" is starting a new project (yes I have some to finish off)- and the crunch came when I am spending the best part of tomorrow with a friend stitching and all my "to finish" projects require the sewing machine. So I really need some stitching to take along with me.
When I was having a bit of a flick through the mags the other night looking for a project "that was in one of them" (and yes I found what I was looking for) I came across this quilt from Stella Whittingham "Take Time Out" which has just a little bit of stitching on it and is then pieced from a Jelly Roll. Well I just happen to have a couple of them lying around and the most perfect one is Garden Party from Blackbird Designs.
As you can see I have pulled the embroidery thread to use so now I best get busy and at least trace some of the designs so I can stitch away tomorrow.
Oh, go on!! One more won't matter, lol :0)
