Block of the Month 2017 / Re: Block of the Month - June

Love the fabric Cheesecake, very kimono-ish.

Made a circular skirt for DD, hand sewed the hem (hate machined hems) it took longer than the actual making. That's something else off the list, right what's next?

Hi, I'm new... / Re: Hi from Somerset

And  a Hello from me.

1024
Linings for DGD's curtains done, linings went in very easily, curtains now back at the window so she can have her afternoon nap. Oh yes, I've been asked to shorten some long curtains, why does one job become another?

1025
Apparently the evening opening is always a bit of a 'bun fight', I've been the following day and the staff are exhausted. these sales always seem to happen when I don't need anything :devil: Then again I'd probably buy what I don't need so perhaps it's just a well. ;)

I loathe curtains and guess what - DD asked me to line DGD's bedroom ones, linings done but not put in so guess what todays job is??? I'd made the linings a few weeks ago and then forgotten all about it until this am, oh well, get them done and onto the next thing.

1027
Curtains finished and up - yeh.

1028
Oh dear, I wish you hadn't asked.
Curtains - almost finished.
BOM
Quilt top started last year, top done needs sandwiching, quilting etc
Strip quit started last year
Hexis I stitch these while watching tv
Mystery quilt - behind with this
In the pipeline:-
2 tops for DGD
skirt for DD
2 pairs of trousers and a top for me
I could go on but I'm getting depressed thinking about all I have got planned.

They don't appear to come to the North West but I usually have a look at the FOQ, thanks for the link. Not that I need any more fabric.

That is fabulous fabric, as for pj's well there's pj's and pj's in my book. Those dressy ones are lovely but I wouldn't wear 'bed' pj's outside. I  wear loose trousers all the time especially in summer but they are a bit more fitted than pj trousers.

My OH doesn't mind - I don't think, he says that sewing keeps me quiet and out of his hair (he hasn't got a lot bless him). If I'm happy then so is he!!!!!!! 0_0 0_0
