Just like those sands thru the hourglass!

Days have blurred into one another, and I was surprised to see how many days have passed since my last post. The brief version is blah, blah....working full time...blah, blah....more work on the house....blah, blah....not enough time to stitch or blog. Enough of that, so I will share some snaps of what has happened in my pocket of the world...


A kitchen almost complete...just waiting for a splash back. Friends have shared a meal to celebrate the passing of another year...


With delicious cake (super yummy red velvet)...


The new island bench has been used to create...but a fabric concoction not a food one! Trying different ways to achieve a lovely appliqué circle...


But returned to my perennial favourite...needle turn, to play with centres for the vintage Dresden.


I have procrastinated over the centres...they are quite big and most fabrics auditioned dominated the block....oh, what to do, what to do! I ended up at a local shop, Pot Pourri Cottage, finally I found some fabrics and devised a plan.


Each Dresden will have two fabrics for their centres, and I think I will have different combinations for each of the four blocks. It will be interesting to see how it progresses.


Lastly, a pic of me. Like most of us, I prefer not to post pics of myself, but I thought an update was in order. So here we go!


Hope all is well wherever you are!
