HQAL – Sunday 29th Sept 2024

Hello Everyone

I hope everyone is well and special thoughts to those in America suffering with Hurricane Helene. We have suffered driving through small local floods but not to the extremes some people who have lost their homes etc.

Well on the sewing front I have pushed on with the Redwork Basket Quilt designed by Mandy Shaw of Dandelion Designs. I have sewn the first three rows together so half the quilt is finished. (No Photo). I have also stitched quite a bit on the August Basket.

Here is where I was last time ….

Here is my progress …

Perhaps a happy dance next time.

That is all from me but please take a look at the other projects of our sewing group.

SAL – 1st September 2024

Hello Everyone

I have been on holiday from the paid job and whilst I had plans for plenty of sewing helping in the garden took over. We have installed new fencing and removed some damaged shrubs. It looks different now and we will allow nature to do her work. However, I have managed a little more on my Spring sewing so without further ado

This is where I was ……

This is my progress …

As you can see I have stitched the bottom flower and the leaves.

Well that is all

Please take a peek at our other members projects as we all work on something individual.

Sunday SAL

Hello Everyone

I have made some progress on the Spring Sewing – I have moved the hoop down to complete the remaining petals and leaves towards the bottom of the design. I have also decided to do some of the back stitching as I go. Might have felt overwhelmed if left to the end.

Here is where I was

Here is my progress

Well that is all from me. Please take a peek at the other members and their progress on individual projects.

Sewing Galore!

Hi Everyone

One of the upshots of the laptop not working is more time for sewing. So where shall I start –

One – I have finished two lap quilts

Two- Been helping mum with a new design. No Photo.

Back to one – this was made for mum

The above photo shows a lap quilt that I made for Sister In Law – Joan who was absolutely thrilled. Loved the back print as she is a keen gardener even though she is 92. Although she admits it is getting too much for her now. Her Garden is always blooming.

These are just two new ideas I am playing around with. Not sure where they are going yet.

The Liberty Quilt

Planned this out and ordered some beautiful Liberty Fabric. Started the 1st row and surprised myself at how quickly it came together.

I love it. What do you think?

I need a cup of tea!

Bye for now

Daisy

HQAL – Late Post

Hello everyone

Apologies for my tardiness. I have had another migraine and with the storm expected today I await another one.

I have managed to make the laptop work today so am going to make the best of it and post a lot of sewing projects. Ha! The laptop may have other ideas!

Here is my progress report

This is where I was

This is my progress (not much)

Just a few little flowers. However, I have ironed and blocked the July Sewing

Just need to sew this line together and we are half way done. Here is a reminder of the other blocks sewn already

Please take a look at my very patient and kind associates in this sewing group who produce some fabulous designs.

Bye for now
