... it was beautiful yesterday morning and it enticed me out in my pj's to take this. It was worth the chill but it was best on top of the shed so took a bit of getting to.

Christmas Project

I'm having the occasional break from my hand quilting marathon to get on with this piece

 

The blocks are nearly ready to go together and be added to the rest of the piece, its going to basted and quilted. 

Next progress post tomorrow hopefully (as long as DD isn't reading this as its for her new flat).

Just back from a few days in wales, the local waterfalls were really in full flow even though there doesn't seem to have been that much rain.

This gave me a good chance to try and capture them.

I did lots more hand quilting and thinking about the christmas makes I have started.

I'm still chugging through my holiday photos, this one had a really ugly fence in front of it so I've taken that out and think you can see the full beauty of it now. I'm not sure if the National Trust try to ruin things on purpose.

Binding, binding, binding .....

.... but I am on the last side.

Note to self, remember to sew in the label now so that the top row of stitches don't show.
