Flowers

Hello my friends.
The next part of `Fabulous Friday` at 
The Country Yard.
Yesterday I emailed Kerryn my finished flowers.


I so love the red flower with lines on fabric turning.
I have made notes on how I want to finish leaves in my quilting. :)

Some Show and Tell

Hello my friends.
Today is `Show and Tell` of a few blocks and gifts.
March block for $25 Quilt.
We have a delay of a few weeks before I can pick up the last block and
find out finishing!!


Elle`s SAL, my progress.


I have been stitching the other parts 
but put aside while working on some birthday gifts.
`Loubee Lou` was a belated gift from one of my sisters
for my birthday.
Her face has been mainly painted. 
Adorable.


Her delightful face.
A lot of time into the painting here.


Showing off her shoes.


Plus there is a pincushion with a letter `C` charm attached.
A pair of scissors with a lovely holder.


These two match the draw string bag that she gave me last year.
A lovely set.


I also found time to make jars of yummy 
`Plum and Apple Jam`


Back to my gifts I am working on.
Nearly there.
Plus the next blocks for 
`Fabulous Friday`
with `The Country Yard`.
Happy Stitching,
Clare.

The Geese in flight.

Hello my friends,
another month is here!
The months are going by so fast.
Last month I was busy organizing a small get together for Hubby`s 65th.
He enjoyed his progressive Tour of visiting
and then the surprise `Pot Luck Tea` 
He want`s to continue working for a while,then semi retire.
-----------
`The Geese in Flight`
is part 2 of `Fabulous Friday`s` from The Country Yard.


I fussy cut from my border fabric 
for one of the flying geese blocks of four.
The rest of my fabric I made sure the pattern was going the same way.
Happy Stitching,
Clare.
