*ME* Day.......

I decided, with this week off work, that Wednesday will be MY sewing day! I have been itching to start something for the last few weeks, maybe piecing? Maybe a Doll? Trace off something? Sew these blocks together on my Design Wall that have been there for SO long??!! So, up bright and early (6am), seen the Hubby off, then got a quilt on my machine going...... Once that was sorted, I got to work on my TTS! Chookyblue has been cracking that whip, with deadline approaching (plus I have entered it in the local show next week!!) I got the binding sewn on:


Ready for tonight! Then I can do another row of quilting just in from the binding!

The quilt on the machine finished, so got another quilt going. Actually, it is nearly finished......

Now, what to start? I have a decent sized sewing room here, it has my Horn Sewing Cabinet, a few plastic tub drawers as well as a good sized dining table......


What a bloody mess! With it like this, I cant get organised and cant settle on anything (plus I cant be bothered cleaning it up)! I have had my cutting mat on the kitchen bench this whole week cause there is no room on my table (its a wonder Dennis hasn't said something)! Arrrrrhhhh! Actually, I do tell a lie..... I just started making one of those Marg Low ornies I made a while back which is also going in the show next week. I was supposed to enter a doll I had planned to make too, but don't think that will happen... Well I know it wont!

Thinking when this quilt is done, maybe I should put one of mine on...... hmmmm sounds like a plan!

*Ding* quilt finished, best be off - and its lunch time! I might pop back tomorrow.....

Don't stress too much about your mess, it only looks like one layer. It's when you have multiple layers and have trouble finding things that you can stress a bit over the mess!
