Friday night sewing results and a sewing day

 Last night I finally got the binding attached  to my Scrappy trip around the world quilt, this has been sitting there waiting for some attention for quite some time.

 I also prepared this cute little stitching  pin cushion, then of course just had to stitch some of it.
 Today I went to the George Town Friendship day, it was such a good day, what can be better than sitting with a lovely group of ladies, doing your sewing and chatting about the one thing we all have in common.
 Roseanne and Sue were busy stitching,
Desserts were just scrumptious,

I didn't get alot of stitching done, I got half of the binding hand stitched down on my quilt. I was too busy catching up with friends old and new.
Thank you Katharine and Erica for your company, I had a great day.

Great to be binding the scrappy... it is lovely all quilted up.... and fun to be with other friends too though I agree.. less stitching seems to get done (even though every one works so hard!!!)

I love your scrappy trip around the world....I would love to do one but I am not good with scrappy quilts and worry that it would not look right...yours is so lovely and the colours are great. It is so nice to spend sewing time with like minded friends. Glad you had a good time.
