In Progress - Susan Oh2Sew

It was a Public Holiday in Brisbane today - for People's Day at the Royal Exhibition Show - fondly referred to as "The Ekka".

I took the opportunity to hide in SSS and added the peeper, the creamy squares and blue border to my SAL project.  I still have those squares to cut, tack and sew....


There is a lot cutting coming up...mmmm....there is also a lot of sewing coming up.....

Less than half way through the month - how are you going???

I still have the whip standing by ,. ., .

Yes, I like the color choices, here...
I have all the cutting done for the month, the little squares pinned for sewing, and have about 10 of the diamonds ready for ironing...I found that if I pin the fabric on the paper, on opposites sides, do the tack of those first, it makes the other to sides easier to do, the corners stay folded because I've sewn to the end of them...Just a hint.
Happy Stitching,
Mama Bear
