Happy easter to you all, I have had a very relaxing easter break, Good Friday my husband and I went to a wedding, we had a wonderful time. Its not very often we get to go out together. Shift work always gets in the way.
Today I have had a busy time in my sewing room, I'm working on a few things and just for fun I started a new project. I put the last stitches in another smitten block. I really enjoy english paper piecing. I have another one prepped and ready for tonight,
My new project involves these pretty blue stars,
and lots of 9 patch blocks, I have made about 50 so far.
My friend is having a birthday soon so I'm making something for her with my Lori Holt fabrics, these are so bright and cheery.
Then to finish off I made a tree to go with my birthday block swaps. It really was a very productive day. Can't wait to sew some more tomorrow, I love having extra long weekends.
Hope you have had a good Easter break and you have been sewing to. xx

Lots of nice things to work on......
Wow you did get a lot done, and so many beautiful projects. You showed the paper piecing on a sewing machine. Do you use a machine to join the pieces?
Wishing you a very Happy Easter Leanne! So glad you had a lovely time at the wedding and have had lots of sewing time too! Love all your pretty projects.... especially the stars! Christine x
Happy Easter Leanne, enjoye your post.
Happy Easter. Its nice to don some pretties for a wedding. Love all you're working on xx
What a pretty vignette of your sewing corner. Oh how I wish I had somewhere to hang a quilt as you have done here. Your EPP block looks good and reminds me that I need to work on mine. Your friend is in for a lovely birthday surprise and I hope we get to see the finished project once it has been gifted.
Happy Easter Leanne ,love your work,you sure have been busy.
Lovely sewing there Leanne... very pretty progress on your Star & nine-patch blocks, can't wait to see them come together...
I like your old sewing machine. Looks nice with the quilt on the wall behind it.
