Birthday Love Stash

I added one of my pincushions to my Birthday Love Stash for March. Although it was only there for a week before I gave it away to a gorgeous lady who was my principal when I was in Balranald.

She loved the pincushion.

Productive Sunday

Firstly. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ANTHEA. She is one of the lovely ladies from the Fat Quarter Birthday group.

Lots achieved on the house front today which enabled me to spend the afternoon doing what I love catching up on TV shows and sewing.

This is what was achieved.

 What is the date?   Only January 4th and I am happy.

Stitch-a-Long

January's task for Chookyblue's Stitch-a-Long was a Shoe Bag designed by Anni Downs found in her book "Some Kind of Wonderful".

I found these shoe bags easy to make and they will be extremely useful.  

When I packed for my month with mum I brought along my SKOW book and fabric with the plan to make the shoe bags.  

At the time I didn't know that I was going to join the stitch-a-long!  Fate I would think.

I used mum's sewing machine to sew the bags together.  She has a Pfaff Creative Vision and I loved using it. I am hoping to have a go at some machine embroidery on it before I go home.

I will be keeping one of these bags for me and I am going to put one in my Birthday Love Stash.

Yay big tick off for

• Birthday Love Stash

Now to get ready for Friday Night with Friends. Looking forward to sewing with some of you tonight.

Birthday Love Stash 2013

I have decided to join up with Wendy at Sugarlane quilts each month in an attempt to make gifts I can add to the birthday stash. I am looking forward to the links that will be provided by Wendy to help me make gifts for my stash.

I have started my list and am looking forward to sharing my gifts with everyone.
