Strips Galore and Sew,Stitch,Snap,SHARE

We've had a lot going on around here so time at

my sewing machine has been almost non-existent,

however, I have made four more blocks today for my

Mardi Gras quilt.

I have a couple of tubs of scraps by the side of my machine,

chunks, clean up cuts, plain old left-overs from lots of quilts and

I'm just digging in and going with what comes out,

this strip was too wide but I just sew and cut to length,

 press, then use my ruler to trim to the width

I want.

After setting myself the target of making four blocks this afternoon

I now have 12 blocks, just another 24 to go! Blocks are 12" finished

and it goes without saying that most of these scraps are

my favourite bright and bold KF Collective fabrics, with a few

other additions from over the years.

 Still playing around with possible arrangements but had a break because

of this distraction arriving on our doorstep this morning,

four Quiltfolk magazines - I thought about this magazine when it first became available

but the cost had me hesitating,  decided to go for it last week and

when I checked on the subscription costs found they were also

offering the first four issues at half price - too good an offer to pass up.

Before linking for Sew,Stitch,Snap,SHARE   two 

rose photos.

A "Peace" rose opened for a few days and saved from the rain

and another photo from two days ago

That's it from me, hope you'll go and visit
