This week ....

Not very often that I go nearly a week between posts.
Here is an update of what's been happening this week in the sewing department.

I made a new pencil case for Keegan for her return to school Monday.


Term 4 already ..... yikes!
(Sorry if it scares some - including me - but I've added a Christmas countdown
 to my blog ..... just over there on the right)

This is a secret squirrel project so this is all I can show at the moment.
It is now finished and will be listed on my OPAM list as "Secret Squirrel 1"


Full reveal will be at a later date. I LOVE it, hope the recipient does.

I've also been slowing working at my Vintage / Liberty Spools Quilt 
and can tick another 14 Spool blocks off the to-do list.


I love the birds on this one :o)
(Off track a little here, but.....)
Wednesday night we gave these a go.


The first item I've been tempted to buy from the show (Recipes to Riches) and have since been back to the supermarket to get some for the freezer for our next Pizza night.



This kid loves being in the kitchen.  We are making cookies later today :o)

I've finished another hexie for my Best Friends Forever BOM



Started a new bag .......


  and a Christmas project.


I've also realised that since Football season has finished I don't have a project ready to grab as I run out the door so I've found myself admiring the Tulips in town (Bendigo) between appointments this week.

 

They were a little wind burnt but still beautiful. Tulips would have to be my favourite flower.


But then when it came to Basketball practice ..............  


Yep, taking pictures of your feet is not that exciting! (a good chance to show off my Tat, yes) lol
I think I really need to find a portable project to grab as I run out the door this summer :o)

  6. I would love to try those pizza base mixes too - I usually just use Lebanese bread for the bases in our pizza oven.
