I was going to write catching up again as it seems to be how most of my blog posts are these days. Not a lot of sewing has been happening here, I have been reading, doing a bit of gardening but do not have much energy as I am anaemic again, but I am heading in to Geelong tomorrow for an iron infusion and next week is the scheduled B12 injection, so all will be well.
Some photos I have taken
Anthology blocks from the last two weeks
Some hexie progress
A little progress on the mystery hexie quilt, I am not finished and a new tempting one has been put out by Jemimas Creative Quilting,
Progress on Tea and Cake, not the best photo! I need to take another photo as more progress has happened since this one.
I was given this book years ago and decided to try and make something from it. We have a postcard challenge at the Guild so I am attempting a postcard combining fabric and paper
this is the start, I need to get back to it! The teacups are from a serviette.
Signs of spring on the way in the garden.
Saturday I joined into a zoom session organised by Chooky, there were ladies from Australia, NZ, Canada, USA and Germany. I had a great time chatting, stitching and listening. It is wonderful to catch up with people we can't otherwise see during these lockdown times.
I sewed many hexagons together and lots onto the main tea and cake quilt top, many many more to go though.
I took the epp stars out of their tin recently and decided to give them a good starch and iron and then applique them onto squares, that plan has partly come to fruition, I have a pile to sew and a pile to take papers out of.
This was the moon we saw out over the Bay on Sunday evening, such a beauty.
I had better get off and do something, read a book, remove some epp papers, plenty to be doing here.
Happy stitching.
You get so much done! I’m a big fan of the hexies and the anthology blocks are fabulous, as always. Hope the infusion has you feeling better!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a wonderful array of stitched treasures, I have no idea how you always get so much done! Great pic of the moon, too, I saw it here as we had no clouds for a change. Glad you enjoyed your Zoom meeting, too! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteSome great work sue. How do you put the napkins on to the postcard
ReplyDeleteFantastic shot of the Blue Moon……

ReplyDeleteHope your binding with energy soon....
So many lovely things on the go and you're making great progress! I enjoyed seeing you on ZOOM last week! Blessed Be
ReplyDeleteSuch a buttery moon :-) As usual your studio is a flutter of activity and quilty goodness. You are a hexie-warrior.
ReplyDeleteYou are getting quite a bit done in spite of feeling tired... hope that is sorted soon..... I'm looking forward to watching that postcard grow

Lots of interesting projects you are working away at Sue - you sure do get some variety which is wonderful. That is a great photo of the moon. I hope you feel better after your iron infusion Sue. xx
ReplyDeleteReading and light gardening are quite comforting. The sewing looks wonderful, specially your hexie project and the stars. The colour of the moon is beautiful. Happy reading and hope you feel better very soon.

Your EPP projects look great.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see you in Zoom.
You are keeping busy with plenty Sue... I hope the infusion visit went well and you're feeling more energetic today - plus with the B12 next week, you will be on top of the world ♥ The Stitch Alchemy sounds interesting and a fun technique to play with.
ReplyDeleteYour hexagon projects are looking great Sue. Hope you're feeling better soon. xx
ReplyDeleteThat's certainly lots of sewing considering there wasn't much sewing!! Sorry to miss the zoom, next time I hope. Hope you are bouncing off the wall by now!
ReplyDeleteSue - hope the treatments take you back to yourself! Hubby has been feeling quite tired lately. Fully vaccinated but maybe a touch of the variant? Or maybe the change in weather? Or maybe we are just getting older and slowing down a little!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to read you are feeling below par Sue...hope the good juice sees you right. Love all your EPP and a very interesting book. That moon is really something....amazing! Sending you a big hug xxx
ReplyDeleteHope the iron infusion gave you more ooomph. Lots of lovely hexies there and other EPP. I thought it was rather light the other night lol.
