Well Hello…it’s been a while…but for good reasons…
There’s been a 21st birthday party here for this little fellow…
Preparation for a 16th birthday party for this little lady…
Though I know the answer, I still keep asking “where did all those years go?”
As the children grow up, the theory is that I will have more time to do what I would like to do…sadly it is still just a theory…big ones are hard work too!
All is not completely lost though, the sanity saver, and friendship builder, that is the GWSMQG Sunday Sewalong, happens once a month. My sewing machine gets dragged along to get a bit of a run! One day I will have something finished to show!!
In the mean time, here is the paper piecing I have been partying along with:
and a whole lot of partying with these….
This is the quilt for the 21st…it’s alright I’m only keeping to my tradition of having these late for my own children…
* 2 Flickr swaps – The DS Doll Quilt Swap and Modern Scrappy Bits Swap are both due early to mid March…I’d better get a wriggle on there and start turning up on Flickr!
* My other favourite Flickr group – Modern She Made, is opening up signups on 25 February…do you dare? DO I DARE?
* Quiet Play’s And Sew On...BoM- the next one is an "unpicker"…I should have a competition to guess how many times I need to use the real thing to make the block…at least there is no deadline for this one.
* GWSMQG has started a challenge and the info is on their facebook page – for this one, I have till April to finish – plenty of pondering time to work out the main colour.
Well that’s me back on the blogging wagon – till I next fall off…
