After riding the mojo wave in January/February, March went flat! ...
I couldn't find the Sashiko panel that I had only just photographed for Chookshed Challenge ... got a sinus infection that hung on for over 2 weeks ...
Bought a Sashiko Panel at the Childers Quilt Show so I eventually put needle and thread to work ...
I'll continue on this at night and will be my FNWF project this Friday.
Couple of items I did manage to finish were the Feb and Mar blocks for the Murder Mystery Quilt. Soooo many pieces of FPP in the Lama but I'm happy with how it turned out and the sun block also used FPP.
Did a catchup of some leaves on the March branch of Temperature Tree.
End of March saw a lot of visitors and trips into town for one thing and another including special "0" birthday lunches. I can't complain about all this wet weather even though it creates headaches for us here on our property ... nothing compared to the devastation unfolding out in Central and Western Queensland.
Ooops ... before heading off I just remembers it's a new month and a new Chookshed Challenge Number ... #4 is completing the top for 2023 Temperature Quilt
So I need to go make a cuppa and then hit the bookwork first, so I can spend some time today playing with my new sewing machine that I picked up last Friday for my birthday.
Life has a way of throwing us crave balls and things don’t go as we plan.
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun outings and visitors.
Good progress on the temperature tree and have fun on #4 Chookshed challenge .

Happy Birthday! And I hope you enjoy your new machine.
ReplyDeleteThose two blocks look complicated! Will be lovely to have your temperature quilt finished. xx
Hope you’re over your sinus trouble now….
ReplyDeleteLovely Sashiko panel to stitch.
Great MM blocks completed.
Your trees coming along nicely and have fun working on #4 the Temperature Quilt.

Happy birthday. A new sewing machine does sound special. There seems to be a theme of a few of us misplacing things in our sewing rooms. Your replacement Sashiko looks nice. Good luck finishing last year’s quilt.
