So much for a couple of days!!

Sorry about that lol! I have had such a busy week! All the quilts have been done and handed over YAY!! And, I managed to finish quilting my Wild Thing this morning! Pretty pleased with myself! I know I haven't shown you a pic of that yet, but you are going to have to wait! lol

In between quilting, I have not even touched my 'normal' sewing machine for a couple of weeks OR more, but have managed to squeeze in some hand sewing! I have been wanting to make myself a Mug Bag for some time now and I had made the perfect stitchery to go on the front....... BUT, do you think I could find it! Nup! Don't you hate that?! Well, I managed to stitch it again this week........ Or was it the week before......

Perfect for a Mug Bag don't you think?!

And, I have finished stitching these stitcheries:



My SIL Roseanne gave me some FQ's and some bag handles for my Birthday, so I have decided to make a bag from them all.......


From A Cinderberry Stitches design!


I am pretty sure I wont get them whipped up this month........ lol
Now my 'this weeks' sewing is..... Lynette Anderson's My Garden Button BOM! I am pretty pleased I have number one done - just have to add the button and bird (so really not done lol), and have started on Block 2 (waiting on a second button to arrive....... Mine was broken :+(! And, I must sewing some binding down ready for hand stitching if I have time before we move....... Or should I start packing???!!!
I sent a gift over to my lovely Cousin in the UK which she has received, so I shall pop back tomorrow to show you what I made...... Have to find my pics first lol
I hope you all are enjoying your weekend.
x Sarah
PS: Sorry about the novel lol
