Club Quilt today….and we had a lovely roll up, everyone had lots of projects on the go….I did get a few things done today as well…….I made this glasses case a design by Anni Downs, but I did add the ric rac as a little something extra….this is also a perfect size for a rotary cutter…..I also made for morning tea this Date Caramel Slice, the recipe is in Kerry Swains new book, “Dreaming of a White Christmas”…

This morning I was up early and on the computer doing some book work for my clients by 7.30, and by doing this I was able to spend some time with my sewing machine this afternoon…these are some of the projects I am working on at the moment, there will be lots of show and tell once they are finished…

Club Quilt tomorrow….and I have a caramel date slice in the oven cooking to take for morning tea…and all my projects are ready for a big day of sewing..

Hope you all had a chance to do some stitching today…

take care Peg….:>)

This is a little stitchery I have been working on…I found this pattern in ‘Homespun” number 76 it is called ‘What A Perfect Day”….designed by Robyn Allen-Waters, the dusty rose porcelain hat was a freebie if you visited the Orange Daisy website…. I think this little button really makes the stitchery….here it is middle of the week again and it looks like another perfect day….


have a fab day..
