Winter has started with a ..........

........ sick Mr Fixit, and a sick Mrs Fixit ............. yes, we share everything, even the things I would prefer not to share LOL

On Sunday, 1st June (1st day of winter) I woke up with a sore throat and have been suffering with the effects of the flu ever since.  Mr Fixit has been a week ahead of me with all the symptoms, and has been home from work for two weeks; we just can't seem to shake off this terrible cough - we have each gone through a box of tissues in the last week.

Any way, on the weekend, Mr Fixit needed to catch up on some work things, so I spent some time in the sewing room - it was great therapy :)

I finished up my christmas block for my June partner, Natasha, and so I don't spoil the surprise, here is a tease photo


I picked some Fat Quarters for my June partner, HelenW, once again, a tease photo follows

I also did some secret sewing :) here is a tease

Then, I got stuck into my Farmers Wife Quilt and made two more blocks - well I made three, but one was the wrong size!  My pile of 'rejects' is getting bigger LOL I will do something with them one day :)
