FNwF

 Thank you to Cheryll for hosting Friday Night with Friends, I managed to do my sewing in the morning and afternoon in the U.K. Hopefully whilst others were sewing around the world. The snow didn't appear as forecast but there was a cold wind from the north.

Some progress on my wreath block.


I hope to sew again this afternoon. We are allowed to exercise for an hour outside, so I'll be going for a walk as well. Now time to make my salad for lunch, 

happy sewing

Josie

      Thank you, I still seem to have trouble with applique pieces seeming to move fractionally as I'm sewing. I walk most days, it is easy to avoid the few people who are out for their daily hour of exercise.

    It's nice having sewers in other countries all stitching alongside one another.
    Thanks for joining in FNwF,,,xox

      Virtually sewing with so many people is fun. I spend a lot of time on my own sewing, I have a lovely view from my window and I love to listen to audio books.

      Thank you, I love to sew in the winter when I can't spend so much time gardening.
      Certainly trying very hard not to put the NHS under any more strain as they look after so many patients.

      Thank you, I found applique late in my sewing life. I now can't wait to finish this block so I can start the next block. Plus looking through applique patterns for more projects.

      Thank you, the new central heating boiler is keeping me warm and I am luckier than so many people to have a lovely home and garden.

      Thank you, I was pleased to find an applique kit that had most of the pieces pre cut.
