Where have I been?
Crikey! It's nearly been 2 weeks since I last did a post!!
Where does the time go??
But now things will be settling down and returning to normal.
I must say, I'm looking forward to catching my breath...
and spending more time in my neglected sewing room.
I did add to my big box of scrappy yo-yos when I had a spare moments here and there...
and got a few rows of big stitch quilting done. Nice and easy when I'm just following the dots.
I'll have more time for blogging too!! My show and tell is piling up.
In my next post I'll not only share one finished quilt but three!!
I promise I won't wait 2 weeks this time :)
Until then, I hope your days are as colourful as a rainbow balloon flower!

ReplyDeleteGlad you squeezed in a little bit of stitching.
I can sense something bright brewing :-)

ReplyDeleteJust look at those yo-yo's! whoo hoo
ReplyDeleteand that rainbow balloon.........that would encourage you for sure to hit that fab/fabric room :)
Wow, three finishes and you are leaving is hanging...hurry back :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the flowers and clippings, looks,like great fun.
I'm glad you have found some time for fabric and thread play. What a hassle when work gets in the way, although that is a different type of play. I love the balloon flower, although when I first saw it I thought it was a balloon lollypop. Now that would cause some tooth decay.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous fabrics in those photos! Always so bright and colorful!
ReplyDeleteAww, I want a rainbow balloon flower! You find the coolest things to take photos of :o)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for leaving me a comment. Your kind words encourage me to keep sharing my work and stories.
