  Just a little bit of time here and there but finally I have managed to sew a little... Here was my plan from last week 1. Find some fabric to make some PJs for the girls - got my stock out, now to get them to pick some maybe? 2. Make one alphabet block (C) - started 3. Finish the thimbles I had already started - finished 4. Work on the hood of my Silvia coatigan  -   no progress and now my plan for next week 1. Cut one or two PJs for the girls  2. Finish my alphabet block (C)  3. Make more thimble blocks  4. Make the hood of my Silvia coatigan, unpick the hem and sew it back 5. Make a tea cup block 6. Make a tea or coffee sleve Linking to  Carol's To Do Tuesday Linky party Céline

  A few weeks back, a new sew along started to sew fussy cut mini thimbles with Happy Sew Lucky. I was hoping to keep the pace but failed miserably. I nearly made the first 2 blocks on time and then completely got lost... Finally this week I've finished 4 little thimbles I'm hoping I can make a few more here and there...

Finish my Silvia coatigan - no progress 3.  Start the mini alphabet blocks -  no progress 4. Continue the fussy cut thimble blocks -  no progress 5. Make a new bag -  not started and now my plan for next week 1. Find some fabric to make some PJs for the girls 2. Make one alphabet block (C) 3. Finish the thimbles I had already started 4.

 I haven't really posted anything new for so long but finally! Block #24 is finished and also block #25 Which means the last row could be put together And added to the other 4 rows. And with that my quilt top is complete! 🎉🎉 Now starts the joy of removing the papers... before one day finishing it!

  Again m ore business travel this month as well as lots of other big projets going on so I'm not sure how much sewing time I'll be able to fit in. Still hoping to steal some little pockets of time! Qui lting 1.   Ravenbrook Scrap Quilt Along - February, April, May, June, July, August, September, October and November blocks needed - nearly all of them really... 2. Dear Jane - hoping to finish row F... 1 block needed 3. Modern City Scape -  hoping to catch up and finish  this quilt along - only 2 more blocks needed. Hoping to finish the top this month -  this will be my   One monthly goal 4. Birthday blocks -  hoping to catch up and continue  with this quilt along or maybe not now. Decision needed! 5. Farmer's Wife - 1 or 2 blocks? But I guess highly unlikely 6. Harry Potter - a few more blocks needed to finish this top 8. Tambo star - hoping to start  this new quilt along, as I have already missed the boat. 9. Mini alphabet quilt along -  not yet started 10. Fussy cut thimb

 Another month which has disappeared VERY quickly with very little sewing really! And this partly because of a big trip that was scheduled late October... I had a business trip to Japan so took the opportunity to extend by a couple of days to enjoy Tokyo. So there has been a lot to prepare before and a lot to do... All I managed to achieve this month is to see these 2 thimbles for Happy Sew Lucky QAL And to add the button and sew the hems on my coat. Still no hood though.  I started block F11 for my Dear Jane while travelling but haven't yet finished it.  I cut the pieces for the last 2 Modern City Scape blocks, hoping that I'd have time to sew them up but that didn't materialise.  Linking to October Furtle Céline
