I got to spend quite a few hours in the sewing room yesterday ......... there was a bit of a movie marathon of X-Men movies on Foxtel, so Mr Fixit was suitably entertained for the afternoon and quite happy to be ignored :)

Tease photo for JenD, USA - June

Updated: Jen's Block has arrived
QUILT BLOCK SWAP AUSTRALIA
these lovely rainbow starflower blocks
from Donna, for June
making progress on my Christmas in July Swap
Bad News: The kit I purchased was missing a few things - like threads and batting :(
Good News: I was able to use up some of the threads I have received as part of the Fat Quarter Swap :)
I am not a good embroiderer, but I think I am improving. I am certainly enjoying the nice quiet time sitting and stitching :)
All that is left now, is to:
- finish my CHERISH Do Good Stitches Charity blocks - 2 x improv blocks/log cabin in the red/orange /yellow spectrum surrounded by lights/neutrals
- catch up on my RSC14 blocks - purple, green & yellow
- catch up on my Globetrotter QAL/BOM blocks - March, April, May, June
- make a start on my 12" mini quilt for September - Summer Theme
lots of great blocks.............well done.........
