Christmas QAL 1

I did manage some sewing yesterday, just two and a half stars. I have changed my mind again about the layout (thanks to another sleepless night), I would never have finished it. Here is the link to our fearless leader this month.

I am hoping to get more sewing done today, the weather is awful. But I have Paul and Steve Temple keeping me company with the Margo Mystery.
I have to wash the kitchen floor before I can pin baste my Christmas Quilt, the cat keeps coming in with wet leaves and general detritus from under the hedges on his long hair and kindly dropping it all over the place.

November Get Your Hex On Example

Hi everyone, especially any of the Get Your Hex On ladies.  Here are a couple of photos of the way I constructed my simple November block. Nothing fancy, just joining hexies. I did find it easy to join them in rows first. Any questions? I'm here to answer them. I have finished the block but not borrowed a camera to take photos, yet.

  Erin has also added a photo to the Flickr group photos.
Happy sewing, I'm off to prep some diamonds for the Christmas QAL.

No camera + unhappy computer

I have been busy sewing but unable to share. I am sharing my dh's camera, just to add a little something to this post.
This is the September Get Your Hex On block.  I had so many problems doing the applique.
  Guess what we have for October, more applique.
Well, I was lucky, my lovely computer man has fixed my computer in record time. I think my dh told him I was repeatedly trying to move the television control like a mouse.
Happy sewing.
