Having talked both my parents into proof reading my paper (there has to be something positive in them being seperated) I decided it was time for a sunday off - especially as winter started this weekend.
It's not a lot, but for an area that usually doesn't get a a lot of snow before January it's amazing. (I want to go home I want more snow!!) Mind last weekend we still had about 20°C - that makes it a temperature drop of 20° in a week ... And I won't get my winter gear before November 15th. Well I will just have to use the onion princip and layer my jumpers...
I was in a cleanung mood - I took care of all those HSTs that I had left from a Depression Block for a swap - and as I wanted the block I sent to stay unique I added the green framing - I sort of like it. Though next time I will remember to make the framing a bit wider ...
And I did a major clean up in the scrap department. I just sewed pieces together as I pulled them out of the box, then a little ironing trimming and more adding scraps ...
I also added a cheddar border to my Barn Bats - but just in case my swap partner suddenly decides to wander around all the blogs - the picture will have to wait.
And I ordered a lot of batting - I need to start sandwitching ... good bye new Castle DVD you will have to wait for next month ...

I like the little trim strips b/t the THS's that was a good experiment. I really love the scrappy project. That's my favorite technique for scraps! cheers, CW
ReplyDeleteI am going to try how you are sewing your scraps together. Just grab from the bin and sew. I like it!! Thanks.
