Progress Report....

I have a very exciting progress report today. Having completed my October Christmas ornament, I've been able to get on with my Flower Garden of hexies. Because the flowers were pretty much all sewn, I've been busy adding them, so have had some seemingly very fast growth.

I'm still undecided about how I feel about this one. As I have previously said, I have paid very little attention to fabric choices and at times regret that.

Never mind, I'll plod on with it and see how I feel when it is finished.

Other very exciting news is that I have finished making blocks for Sea Swept on Thursday and began to make rows. By the time Tony came home for lunch I had all of the snail trail rows completed.

I had even made a start on making up the smaller corner stone rows.

On Friday I finished those and began to put them all together.

Here you see where I left things on Friday.

Just about half way to being a completed top.

The foundation papers are still in there and are beginning to give me problems.

I have moved the sewing machine as far to the right of my desk as I can as the stiff ness and weight of the papers make sewing the rows together rather a challenge. I thought the additional space on the table top might help. It doesn't. I may try taking some of the papers out to see if that makes things more manageable.

Two more days to go, then my leave starts.

I'm off to play, until it's time to work.

It's the weekend, Tony is home, he is in charge of food today.
