Umm Hello

Umm Hello, seriously sometimes I just am bamboozled for titles to my posts..am wondering if this is just some unique weird thing I have or do you maybe have it to at times?

Being back @ work for just the 4 hrs a day has helped my mental well being immensely.

Yeah I can use my sewing machine…..



I traced out all these blocks before I went into hospital, they all came from one of Jenny ‘s monthly magazines…

I used all fat eights of fabric that different people have given to me in swaps and like the mixture of colours…

I also managed to finish this stitchery,




which was gifted to me to assist me in behaving during my recovery…
AANND there is one more..
Yesterday whilst hubby was banging and clangin with the renovations… I was sooking in my sewing room looking for something to do I recalled a blog I had stumbled across a while ago- do you stumble across blogs that take your fancy and write a note and then go back later for a good look around- my note usually looks something like.. (I used to bookmark them or add to my read but tended to overlook them and found it easier to write the note..)
*View later-patchwork stuffs- awesome tutorials- found by a typo in my search,
So I found this tutorial over @ Crafty Fox ..ah yes perfect I need a cover for my cushion that is assisting my back pain at the moment…so off to the scrap bin I went and voila..very happy with the end result..



Is actually quite bright and happy looking…love a good tutorial don’t you..although I did not follow it 100% there is many possibilities with colour combos..

Okay enough nattering from me off to rest a bit.

Cheers Vickie
Thanks for dropping in.

Love your nattering and seeing your sewing too. I sometimes just leave the title blank because I can't think of what to call a post.
