Yes curling has taken over my house this week. Watching the Brier Canadian men's tournament and getting some sewing and hand quilting done at the same time. For years I would always have a quilt set up on my frame and I spent many hours stitching and watching sliding rocks. I also skipped a team at my local club this week for ladies day. We had lots of fun and enjoyed the day but sadly finished last!
After being busy and not home much this week, I was looking forward to Friday. Sewing was planned but only hand quilting stitches were put in place. It took till Saturday when my friend Natalie was dropped off by her daughter for a "play date"! I find some times lately I need a kick in the butt and today was the day. We got batting sewn together and a backing made. That quilt will be quilted later this week at Natalie's. Then we started cutting up strip sets for a quilt for guild later this Spring.
Today I was sewing these triangles together. Fairly easy sewing but I know it is going to be tougher when I join the rows and all the seams I have to match. One row done and 18 more to go!
I will be checking in with
Kathy and see what everyone is slow stitching today. I watched her floss tube video yesterday and she has so many projects on the go. How do you keep them all straight Kathy??
It has been a busy weekend with International Women's day and turning the clocks ahead, I am wishing all the ladies in my life many thanks for all you do for everyone. I hope losing an hour isn't too exhausting.
