I hope everyone enjoyed their long weekend
The weather is has been lovely and we got some much needed rain
I’ve been swimming and walking and slowly getting back into a routine
I finished my table runner
The quilting is stitch in the ditch. It’s not perfect
The weight of the runner would pull and pull it off line so there are more than a few
Wonky bits
But I’m happy with it. Once I put on the Christmas decorations on it. You won’t notice it
Here are a few, much smaller, Pieces. I will pin them and quilt them and get them finished
In the next few weeks. Then I’ll put them away for Christmas presents
Nothing like getting a head start I say
And I’ve stared on my stash of bendigo wool mills yarn
These are fifty fifty wool and bamboo
So they are nice and soft
So there is nothing exciting happening right now, just life
Uncomplicated, boring comfortable life
And I like that.
See ya xxx
My first quilt I did I did a stitch in ditch and few times I came up or down. But it got job done.
ReplyDeleteI think the same. If your going to look that close and critique. I hope you can do better I say lol
DeleteHow nice to be able to quilt too. It looks mighty fine to me.
ReplyDeleteThat wool and bamboo mix sounds great. I always wanted to try something with bamboo in it. I might do a search online. I need some yarn to start a 'me' project.
Good on you for getting back into your routine and swimming again
I haven’t quilted for ages. So it’s nice to be able to get back into it.
DeleteThe bamboo is so soft. I use a bamboo cotton for dishcloths. They last ages
