First finish for 2012

I have been storing crates, boxes of fabric,

boxes of stuff, my empty sewing machine box

and other 'stuff' under the quilty beasts table

I see that stuff everyday, and everyday it

drives me crazy.

So today at lunch I decided that today was the

day to make the quilty beast table a skirt.

So I dug through my most likely never to be used fabric

and found a range that I thought would work as I

had enough to do my thing with

2 hours of sewing,

14 cup hooks,

5 metres of curtain wire stuff

7 metres of fabric and

ta da

the quilty beast has a skirt

and I love the change it has made to my sewing room

and Henrycat has a new hiding place to chase

his lizards into lol

I have left the back open as its against the wall unless the beast

is in use

Two of the girlies and I went to Tura Beach today to collect

a Sunbeam Reversagrill. I can't wait to use it

It can be used with the grill plate

or with the flat plate

I am planning on using the grill plate more than the

flat plate.

I have started stitching again at night.

I am onto the final block of In My Garden,

I have 2 and bit little blocks to go

then

2 big blocks to sew together.

Then it will be all sewn together, borders added

and quilted.

I can't wait to get it done and hanging up somewhere.

School goes back on Monday yippee, the kids can't wait and

if I am honest neither can I, its been a l-o-n-g 6 weeks.

Have a great weekend, happy stitching if you get a chance.

I have a housework date tomorrow, then we have some of dh's

family arriving, we haven't seen them since our wedding and they haven't met our girls

so it should be a fun day.

Sunday we are planing on going for a hike up Mt Imlay if the weather

is fine otherwise it will be a day in my sewing room for me.
