Finally feeling better--
got things around to start the Within an Inch sal--
with Shell at Raspberry rabbits--
did an heart applique--
worked a bit more on this block--
ended up changing threads for the hexies--the first ones I picked bled really bad--
read a book--
first weeks hexies--
started May's word play--
(did Jan, Feb, Mar and April a few years ago--)
New Years day I got an email saying I had won a drawing from last year--
for $25 at Fat quarter shop--
so I got the new wool ironing mats and a couple charm packs--
and I actually went and had a mammogram done --
hexies are growing--
but I don't like the thread color for stitching them together--too dark--
been sorting and cleaning again towards the move back to FL--
and I found my little book that I keep track of the hours I stitch each day--
I sorted all the Cosmo's threads--but used colored sandwich bags--
not happy how it came out!!
bought a new iron--
(and took back the other one I had gotten at walmart when I first got here--
this one cost me double as that one--but that one was very heavy and large--
like this one much better--and I also go this one from walmart--
made 3 pockets with fussy cutting the birds fabric--
these are for gifts and for a weekly sewing idea blog I joined--
and I got this embroidery piece all done--
again a gift--
first block for the Hand Piecing sal--
and a red cat for tiny tuesday--
3-d bow tie--
all hand stitched--
Supplies came in for the Crabapple hill studios--
embroidery sal for the month of Feb--
bought more hexies from Shell--good now until the end of June I think!!
I won something else this month--
Country magazine from Bee Haven farms with their story inside of it--
and in the evenings--
I knitted these little gift stockings--45 of them!!!!
