Friday Night Sew In Results

Another successful Friday Night Sew In!


I machine quilted some hooked feathers for my Mother,


in the border of this little quilt she made.


It is a thimble quilt - the pieces are about an 1". She had stippled the centre, but didn't feel up to feathers yet.


I had to keep a timer near by so that I wouldn't get carried away with sewing,


and forget to move the sprinkler. We are trying to grow grass and sod in +30C temperatures, and it takes a lot of water.



I did sew together some hour glass blocks too (I had made the blocks a while ago).


They are for the sashing of the Hop to It quilt (from the book by Edyta Sitar, I finished the last block this week).


I didn't know if I would like the sashing, but I now think it will be OK.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
