How does your garden grow?

FNSI stitching was all about the flowers on my current project.

Now they are all in place, I just need to sort out how I will finish January's angel block.

All the flower stitches were completed before Friday evening was over so I picked up the Beady Eyes pink sock and made good progress on the foot, I finished it today.

I have completed this sock since I took the picture as in sewed up and ends woven too. I will be casting on the second one shortly, but first I need to make a start on weaving all the ends in on the last pair. I may not complete this in one sitting.

Now I'm off to see what my fellow stitchers worked on last night. Thanks to Heidi and Bobbi for hosting.

Hope your weekend includes lots of time in your creative space.

Happy Australia Day to all the Aussies who come this way.

Playing Hooky

One of the best things about not working full time is that I get to hang out at the local Community Centre on Tuesdays with a lot of other like minded creative people.

After all the starting on the weekend I decided I should work on some of the projects which have been resting - like these spot blocks that I hooked up back in February and even laid out then too, but didn't get around to putting together.

So Tuesday I sewed them all together and then Wednesday at NCB I worked on the crocheted top that finishes this off.

In between enjoying delicious morsels of course.

Then I ran out of yarn - only on me at the time, I have plenty of the blue to finish this off.

I am about half done with the handles.

It will be another Banjo bag from Interweave crochet magazine, Summer 2011 issue.

I had a little sewing project with me as well and even put a few stitches in that too.

My Angel found a comfy spot to rest before flying off to her new home.

Hope your week is full of creative company and angels of course.

Flittering...

around - is what I've been doing this weekend.

The sock is having a short vacation while I await more yarn to complete it.

So I decided to do a little stitching...

Rudolph is by Vivian Robinson and appeared in Homespun No38 Vol7 No6.

Daisies for an angel.

Organising backing for the pinwheel quilt top that has been patiently waiting for the past four months.

Playing with some pretty blues,

and making stars.

I have enjoyed playing with fabric and threads all weekend.

These little bits mean that I may get something finished in the next week.

Hope your weekend was a happy one.
