At the end of May I did start a new project (surprise, surprise!). I justify it by saying I’m testing a new set of templates (my story and I’m sticking to it!).
Using the echinacea from Anna Maria Horner’s latest release “Hindsight” as my feature fabric, I chose some complementary fabrics sorting them into groups
then had a cutting spree, ending up with a pile of sets ready to stitch
I finished sewing all the sets last Friday night
Cut out all the backgrounds on Saturday night, did a layout on Sunday and started stitching them up on Sunday night. Now to start on the accompanying applique! Very exciting and…….I’m getting my mojo back!!
How’s your stitching going?

My stitching is going steadily, I do love that echinacea fabric, it comes in some beautiful colours, so far I have resisted buying any.
We have new babies in the family, so I’ve crocheted a couple of little “take to the footy so you have somewhere to sit for a picnic” rugs. But now that they’re well and truly finished, I’m struggling to dig up enough enthusiasm to completed the simple beanie on my hook at the moment. Obviously it’s not quite as urgent as the rugs were!
I do love that echinacea design, and am looking forward to seeing how it looks in your new project 🙂
Well I have a pile of fabric on the dining room table and the sewing machine in it’s case next to the dining table. Does that count as having a sewing project on the go???
Good to hear that the mojo is back. it’s so very disconcerting when it goes AWOL, isn’t it!
Love the fabrics! I am prepping hexies, using squares I had cut for my ill fated Mrs B. They will be turned into a table topper to go with the new quilts and cushions in the family room ( do you remember the little table beside the door?)
Boy – have you got your mojo back!!! That brain is in overdrive at the moment!! Can litetally see the cogs turning when speaking to you!! 😅🤣
