June in review and goals for July
June has not been a very productive month in the sewing room really. It started with Mr Cars' First Holy Communion which turned out to be a fantastic week-end with friends and family followed a week later by a workshop on chocolate with my friend, which prompted me to spend lots of time playing with chocolate (instead of fabric!). So I tried to redeem myself towards the end of the month and tried to work through some of my list! Here is what I have managed finally to cross off.
1. Make my Siblings Together 2 May and June blocks - all done and the bee is over for this year
4. Finish Maud's bag and my work bag - no progress
3. Finish Maud's bag and my work bag
Maybe I should stop here, not sure that leaves me any time for some sleep;-)

Very pretty finishes. You have a long list for July. I hope you get them finished.
ReplyDeleteSo many fabulous projects! Your blocks are beautiful and I especially love the cats - also thinking about joining in the Postcard QAL.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I've got a metre of the fabric in that flower quilt if you need it. Just yell xx
