Bunnies and brioche

I started cleaning up my sewing room AGAIN on Friday night but didn't get very far. I came across this Rosalie Quinlan bunny kit that I bought at the craft show last year. He was very quick to whip up, a nice easy project to start the weekend.

Yesterday we tried our hand at making brioche. Very yummy indeed and not too difficult to make.

And two swap gifts made and wrapped for GDITC.

Today I planned to be sewing by midday.....and I still haven't started. I hope you've had a lovely weekend and found some time to sew and relax.

Happy stitching,

It's autumn.....

But my roses think it's spring.

I have been a very busy little stitcher working on a stitchery from the Simply Blessed BOM, for Rosalie Quinlan to use in a sample. My goodness there is a lot of stitching in these designs, I think it's all the chain and satin stitch. Gorgeous design and a beautiful thread too. Thanks for the opportunity Rosalie.

I got the best kind of mail yesterday. I won a giveaway on Anthea's blog and was lucky to receive a great project bag (perfect size for my knitting), some very pretty thread and a cute little tape measure (which now lives in my handbag). Thanks so much Anthea. X

Last night I thought I'd have a quick look at the fabric I bought for my niece's quilt, just to have a think about what I was going to do........well I was whisked away with creativity and got all the blocks sewn! They are only half square triangles but there is over 80 of them....and I had to remember how to use my machine again (no hand piecing on this one). The layout needs some tweaking so hope to have a pic soon.

Happy stitching,
