Back in the Groove

Last night I finished stitching this little Home Sweet Home stitchery designed by Lynette Anderson. Sarah and I purchased this pattern at Evandale in July and decided we would bring it along finished to the Quilted Crows gathering at Campania on September 20th. The pattern included a lovely house button which will go in the space under the tree. I am planning to add some borders and get it finished today. We'll see!



This is the first completed block for my Truly Scrumptious quilt. I am getting used to the flowery fabrics and ....



Oliver appears to approve. Just noticed how well the outer border matches his ginger coat. No wonder he's impressed!



It is nice to be back in blogland. Thanks to everyone who has been dropping by.

    Your stitcheries are fantastic! Oliver must be thinking that quilt is being made just for him -- it's so well colour-coordinated. LOL

    YAY you did it! YOu know what - yours looks more 'centred' than mine - mine kinda goes a little out and back in on the right - so dont look to close!!!
