Not much...

...new here to report.
I did get some things mailed out.
More to go. Hope by Monday.
All my PIF's were sent out a bit ago and received by Laurie, Ann and Elaine.
Part of Laurie's went missing so one of the packages going out today is her wee stuff... ha!

I did put a hanging sleeve and a label on a gift if that counts as sewing...by hand.
I also decided to rip/cut out some home spun squares for a simple block fallish rag quilt.



10", 8", 6", 4", 2" are my measurements. ;-)
May put a pc of batting between the 10" and 8"...not sure, ,might be thick enough with just layers of fabric. Simple Dimple.
Will sew up with black thread than wash it.
No way can any lil one hurt it as it will be already ragged. Ha!Haa!!
Got Christmas colors ready to do up too.
I also want to do log cabin runner with some homespun, Fall and Christmas .

Hope more work is done on my 'room ' this weekend!!
Wishing ya'll a good weekend !!!!!!

  6. Oh PIFs... I need to get on that. They're on my to-do list, which is getting longer by the day. I guess there won't be too many handmade-by-me Christmas gifts going out this year after all. sigh.

  8. I sure did receive my PIF and it was fantastic. Thank you very much. I owe you a photo of where the banner is hanging and I'm busting to stitch up some snowmen. Your plaid blocks are wonderfully rustic. Ann :)
