Friday Night with Friends - show and tell

I got to do just a little sewing for my FNwF

I redid my Lesson #1 block for A4A QAL


Lesson #1 - first time
I wasn't happy with the contrast in the original block - I think I like it much better now.


Lesson #1 - redone


Virtual Design Wall - with new block

I am currently working on Lesson 15 - that will end up with connecting all the sections together, then I guess it is the outer borders - looking forward to getting this finished!!!

FNSI - Show and tell

I didn't get as much done for my FNSI as I wanted - I got sidetracked in the afternoon making up some cards for a prize for a Charity Quiz Night for Pregnancy Loss Australia - in memory of my Great Nephew Shaun. (see my post HERE if you are interested)

Of course, FNSI starts with suitable preparation

I worked on Lesson 12, for A4A QAL - it took me a long time for pick my colour combinations and cut up all those 2.5" squares ;-)

I was so engrossed, I only had a few sips of wine, and I didn't even open my chocolate!!

Lousy weather = FNSI + A4A QAL catch up

I managed to get a lot done in my FNSI - the weather was lousy, so I stayed in and sewed.

I caught up on Lessons 7 and 8 for A4A QAL


Lesson 7 - Unit C2


Lesson 8 - Unit A3


Unit A8


My Virtual Design Wall Quilt - it is getting to the stage where I really want to put this up on my Actual Design Wall, but that would mean I would have to take this down

I only have a few more blocks to receive, then I can make it a flimsy ;-)
