I had a great sewing night last night for my first Friday Night sew in, I got all my blocks for my scrappy trip around the world together and I'm thrilled to say the least. This quilt is full of my favourite colours and fabrics and I can see it easily becoming well used this winter.
This quilt took me 11 days to make, I was pretty happy with that. it was one of those projects you just can't stop working on and the blocks were so much fun. I love it.
This cute zinnia was in my garden yesterday when I was bringing in the washing, it looked so pretty against all the greenery so I just had to take a photo.
Here they are all in a row, these are my favourite flower and I plant them every summer.
After I finished putting my blocks together it was still early so I sat down with my new Anni Downs stitchery and got all the words finished.
I was so pleased with my efforts for the evening, lets see what I can achieve in my sewing room today.
Happy Australia Day to all my Aussie friends.

Oh I love your Scrappy Trips! I only have 4 blocks done. I'm going to try to make myself finish some tops this weekend but it's hard. I am so unsure about the borders so I put it off. The Farmer's Wife is on the dining table so it will get finished because I want the table back! How are you going to quilt your Scrappy Trips? Will you do it yourself or do you have a quilter? Well, have a good weekend. I'm jealous of your beautiful flowers. It's still the dead of winter here.
Cheery wave!
