Updates and a new blogger friend:

There has not bee to much sewing going this past week, but I did manage to finish off the verse on the 'Breast Of Friends' quilt - I was very lucky that I had just enough thread to do it too!! I will give it an iron when it is all done!!

Now, people who know me well, know that I just cant stitch using a hoop....... I find it too slow, well, look here............. I found that stitching the swirls on this block without the hoop made it pucker too much, so I had to unpick some of what I had done and re-do it WITH the hoop!! It does look heaps better too I must say!! But, still slow lol

Looks like I am already behind lol!! I received my latest Homespun mag yesterday!! There is another 2 blocks in this issue - one by Natalie Bird from The Birdhouse..... isn't this block just lovely??!!

And, a block from Rosalie Quinlan:

This weekend I will be sewing up a storm - hopefully!! It will be my in-laws 50th Wedding Anniversary in March and Roseanne and Myself will be making them a surprise photo quilt (I know we have not got long and we have not even started)!! So stay tuned and I might be able to share some pics tomorrow maybe.........

Another thing - I have stumbled on a 'new blogger' - Kerry. She is in Victoria, very near the fires and she has been sharing some pics....... pop over and say 'hi' here

Ok, I must get going. I will be back over the weekend to share pics of our progress.
