Word Verification Frustration

Arghhh grrr..it has taken me 30 minutes to visit 4 blogs and leave a comment..no my internet connection is not slow-it is the new blasted word verification..so I have now turned word verification OFF on my blog and all comments will await my approval for posting on my blog..I am not a robot but golly I can’t read half of the blasted codes either…

 

Ok stepping down of my soapbox now,

Cheers Vickie

A Change is good

I have not touched my sewing machine in a week, I have been unable too do any hand stitching either and think that is what made me not want to use the machine..anyways this weekend I was back at the machine..

But I did not wish to sew quilty matter so I looked in my fabric closet and chose some fabric and  I made these..for 2 little girls..

P1060044

Added a tie back the same colour as the skirt’s to both.

P1060045

I think them Riley Blake buttons look awesome…oh yeah the buttons are just sitting there as I can’t sew them on.

P1060043

I love pink and green…

Hope you have all had a lovely weekend,

Thanks for stopping by,

A whinge & Swoon blocks

Oh my where did the past 2 weeks go? This is what happens when one is deprived of sleep, my mind becomes very very forgetful..MY tinnitus has been really bad past couple of weeks, soon as I am in bed and everything is quiet I have the whole dang orchestra playing..and it has been 2 am before I have been drifting of too sleep –last Thursday I felt myself kinda falling apart so took Friday off and took some sleepers (I can’t take these during the week as I am not quite with it in the morning’s)..I caught up on much needed sleep but know the pattern will continue whilst the orchestra keeps playing, we are going to see if we can get some wireless earplugs for mp4..as I tried with the ones I have but the roll over dang pull plug out..

There has not been much progress on my Some Kind of Wonderful blocks as my arm has ben giving me grief..gee what a bag of whines I am today.

I did manage to make another Swoon block to replace the block that was too bright..ermm ok I have not shown that picture..I shall remedy that right now..

I made 9 blocks

P1060029 [800x600]

And this is what they looked like just laid out on the bed..that bright pink 1 just popped a tad too much and I could not place him elsewhere as he was a brown star and there was only 4 brown star places..so I rummaged around and found some more fabric..

P1060031

And made this 1 –ah yes think that will look so much better.

P1060032

Placed them all on the bed again and yep much better,and no 2 fabrics are the same, now I can concentrate on the  sashing..with Hubby interstate this coming week I may just stuck at me machine hehehe..
