Winter Solstice Sew Along & Other News..

I have been sewing along with Sweet P in her Winter Solstice sew along. Last month I messed up and instead of doing houses and stars~ I did houses and trees.  See Here.

So this month I am showing you my trees again~ and the stars!

LOL I am all caught up! :-)

I have really been enjoying this sew along.  Tomorrow Sweet P will have a post with everyone who is sewing along. Can you believe it is nearly October!!??

In other news~ Clover & Violet released their newest pattern today!

It is called 'Felicity'.  I was lucky to pattern test and above is my version.  I used corduroy for the dark blue and I just love it!

It has an inside frame pocket.~ pretty cool, huh? :-)

Until next time~

Happy Stitchin'! 

Winter Solstice... or Whoops!

I've joined Sweet P in a Winter Sostice quilt along~

Last month we did the barns. And I thought this month was

houses and trees... whoops!

It was supposed to be houses and stars! :-o

 

I guess I am a little behind and a little ahead! LOL

I didn't even get all the trees finished up because they are a lot of work!

Digging through scraps, pressing, cutting, sewing,  repeat!

Here is my progress~

I cut the house as one shape, and appliqued wool doors.  I liked the look better than trying to match up plaids. ;-)

Now I need to step it up for September as she thinks I will get the whole top together!? :-o

Gulp!! 

;-)  LOL Time will tell.

I hope you are doing some fun sewing too!

'bye for now!

Winter Solstice~~

I am sewing along with Paulette and other bloggers, making

the Winter Solstice quilt from 'Life in the Country' by Country Threads.

Our first 'assignment' was to do the 2 barns.....

I am going to do mine in a combination of cottons, homespuns, and wool~

all of which are in my stash! :-) A totally stash quilt... I love it!!

To see everyone else's blocks, go to Sweet P's blog and take a mug of your favorite morning drink along, because you will be there a while! ;-)

Until next time~

Happy stitchin'!
