I've finished yet another Nice People Nice Things block. This one is called 'Angels'.
I stitched the words in pink 223 and this time I had enough fabric cut to use the same for all the borders.
For the words on the back, I stitched in 223 again.
I'm pleased with the progress I'm making on the quilt and have another block stitched and ready to assemble.
Portobello Market...
I'm really trying to stay on task and focus on Nice People Nice Things, but yesterday I was distracted by this lovely pile of Moda Portobello Market fabric.
I purchased the charm pack a little while ago and then added some fat quarters in my favourite fabrics.
I thought it would be nice in a quilt with stitcheries on it but maybe it's a big dark? Not sure. I sketched some stitcheries yesterday and worked out what block to use but then put it away for while. Will think about it.
Christmas Shopping...
I really hate shopping this time of year - there are just too many people in the mall - but I still had a few things to buy so yesterday Aaron, Jill and I braved the shops to finish up our shopping. I was really reluctant to go and they bribed me with the promise of a nice lunch but in I was glad I went in the end because we managed to snag some real bargains in 'pre-Christmas sales'. Now it's mostly done - just a few bits and pieces to buy. Can't believe how quickly Christmas has come around. Life seems to be moving too quickly these days. Don't you think?
Until next time
Lyn
