Friday Night with Friends.

Last night I joined lots of other quilters in a session of sewing.  I did manage to trace the designs for some more Xmas ornaments and stitch together some strips for a secret project before I decided to give up on the things I had planned to sew and do a little stitching in front of the TV instead.  Since I came back from retreat last week, I have been fighting a bug, and so between sneezing, requiring the need for an endless supply of tissues and a slight headache, that seemed like a much better idea. Pleased to say, I have been feeling much better today.  So below is what I did last night.

Traced 6 of these ready for stitching.

Wonder what this will be :  lovely Nancy Halvorsen fabrics.
Thank you Cheryll for hosting again. I'm now off to check out what others got up to last night.
Till next time....... Happy Stitching............

    A little stitching helps most ailments. Hope you're feeling better soon. It's a lovely pile of prepped stitcheries, and interesting secret sewing.

    Hope you've stopped sneezing and are feeling heaps better now Noela. It stinks to be off colour.

    Lovely stitchery prep ...you've almost convinced me that I should dig out some of my own Christmas embroidery patterns and at least make a start!
