Last day of January so let's wrap things up.
My Chookshed Challenge #6 I swapped with #10 and grabbed some small kits from a stash draw. End result was 2 small cross stitches complete and 2 more repurposed ... I added the threads to my thread stash, needle to the needle stash and the 2 small squares of Aida can go in my sewing basket ready for grab and go project.
I'm loving the Temperature Tree Cross Stitch project and only have today's leaf to go for January ... then I'll move on to another branch ready for February.
For the last week of school holidays we entertained our daughter's 2 boys which meant they came to my patchwork day with me. I have squares of calico to put in a hoop, needles and threads and they create their own embroidery. We also walked down to the local shop to grab some chicken and chips for a picnic lunch in the park and luckily there is a great climbing tree close by as well. Perfect for 2 little monkeys to expel some energy ...
Goodness ... is it really a new month tomorrow? Can't wait to see which number comes up for our challenge and also the 2nd block for the Murder Mystery Quilt.
Great job getting your #6 done for the challenge.
ReplyDeleteIt’s lovely you can take the boys with you to sewing and they have that nice tree to climb.
Your Temperature Tree’s first branch is colourful….
