Slow innernets = More sewing :o)

My DH recently bought an Ipod touch. This is an amazing little gadget that can connect up to the innernets and keep him amused for hours. However. The stuff he’s been playing on has taken up buckets of downloads and so now we’re on ‘go slow’ … dial up speed, and it’s taking ages for the simplest thing to be done on the ‘puter any more he he he. So, for the next 10 days I’m guessing there will be a lot more stitching than ‘putering going on in this house lol.

Here’s what I’ve been up to these past few days – another Sewing Caddy set!!! This one is in “Mill House Inn” by Fig Tree Quilts for Moda – Oh I just LOVE those fabrics :o) …. And I’ve also been making a store sample of my “Slice ‘n’ Dice” quilt in the GAWJUS “Martinique” range by 3 Sisters for Moda – Isn’t it just divine!!??! I’m quilting the blocks at the moment (it’s quilt-as-you-go) - so I’ll show you more when it’s looking more like a quilt lol.

Have a great weekend …. I’ll be spending most of mine with my Janome he he he.

A finish and some squishy mail.

This quilt has been three quarters done and hanging on the back of my sewing chair for MONTHS!!! Shame on me – I know!! All it needed were the borders!!! I don’t know why I didn’t just do it …. so glad I finally did cos I really like it :o)!!! It’s the second quilt I’ve made from this design called “Honeycomb” that I did last year - here’s the original….

and here’s the back of the new one … Because it’s quilt-as-you-go it’s easy to make the back pretty too … so it’s reversible. Now all I have to do is put the label on :o).
