But today was a different story. It did take me until after lunch to get myself into some sort of sewing mode.
Between Pa's visit and now Pat becoming sick again, I am needing to recharge my batteries somehow.
Before tea tonight I had drawn and cut out the templates on fabric. Spent a relaxing evening sewing and gosh the time just seemed to fly past. I can't get over the time 10.28, last time I heard our clock chime it was 9 pm.
Before I actually started sewing I spent about 20 mins outside under the veranda watching the wind blow and the small amount of rain we had blow past myself and my rabbit "Buddy".
I love block 3 and its my very first attempt at a basket block. This one so far has to be my favourite.
Block 3 "Basket"
Block 4 "Basket Weave"
Block 4 was so easy to make. So far the blocks have been simple to make, but I am sure there will be some that will have me pulling my hair out....hehehe
