A Busy Week I Have Had...

Cushions for my local craft group... we are having a stall sometime in October... so us girls are busy making saleable items....
Remember we made the "wall of pot holders"?... well they have nearly all gone and that is just from visitor's to our craft rooms and one of our girls buying up for Christmas...

Here are the 2nd and3rd row additions to my ''ostrich round robin'' at IFQ... pinwheels was the pattern for the 2nd row... I have added mine to the corners... and flying geese for the 3rd row... PHEW finished just in time for the 4th row pattern to be given to us... if you get a chance go to the IFQ link and check out the gallery... wonderfully talented girls are over there.

This is my ''piece o cake'' BOM that I have been doing with a group of friends... sorry that it is a bit dark... each BOM was based on something to do with friendships....

As you can see even though I haven't been here to post I have been busy sewing away.

Now off to catch up with some little baskets.

The 1st House Pet Lamb 2009

Say hello to little "Miss Isla"... she is about two days old... and how sweet is she such a cute little face... Hubby just came and got me to take a photo... I have been looking for them for a couple of days as the mum "Issy" wasn't with my small "pet flock"... good indication that she was away having her lamb.

There are a couple more in my ''flock'' to lamb... I just love baby lambs.

Stitching Angel

This is the first project on offer at http://hugsnkisses.typepad.com/ for the ''I am a Stitcher's Angel'' swap... I really enjoyed making this little bag and I think the little stitchery of the rose makes the bag so much more personal... I chose green fabrics as that is my ''angel friends'' favourite colour... I see there is another pattern up for the swap.

Woohoo... the start of my ''little baskets''

Ten little baskets started a lot more to come... 5 a week 20 a month... the challenge begins. I think they are quite cute and they don't take to long by machine... I am using satin stitch.

Here are about 60 odd cut out with heat and bond fusing on the back.
The ''stack'' all cut... 5 1/2 in squares... I think there are about 220 in this pile. The other girls have started and their colour choices are fantastic... red and white... cream backgrounds...

My Basket Fabric

Yeah finally my background fabric for my ''mini baskets''... I did order fabric over 6 weeks ago and my order got lost.... sniff sniff... but now I can get started.
