Getting Back in the Saddle (aka the sewing chair)

Finally a bit of momentum on the sewing front - and it feels great!

The final four large blocks are done........
Proposed layout.....

I even remembered to check in black and white.........

Two smaller blocks done - and two more to go.......then I can put it all together!!!

Block for August meeting - just needs embroidery.....

Overdue block requiring satin stitch.........luckily the winner is not in a hurry to construct the quilt!!!
This pattern is from last year (arrowhead).......sampling it for a bed quilt.
First some chain piecing........

Then some 'un' chain piecing.........oops, got carried away!

Making more sense now.......


The redecorator continues to ply her magic - and keep us amused.......











And then there are the 'grand dogs'.....






That's all folks - nothing more to see here......

Hopefully back in the blogging chair, as well,

Sue xxxx
