Hop To It BOM

Have been busy with my Nurses cap on again here, for several days now ....

and will be for a few days more..

I have only done a little of the prep for my HTI BOM.

This has come to a bit of a stand still!

The WCQ has stopped once more for the time being.  No time for concentration for very long.

I have also started a PSE course   - with Carla Barret of Feathered Fibers  ... on-line...but I am not getting a long way fast with that either.

I sometimes think someone is playing funny people with me....

Friday Night Sew in

I made the FNSI at last. 

Spent some time frogging before I got there though - and had to almost relearn my machine.

So here is what I have done so far on my WCQ.

Two and a half more of the center motifs to go and then I hope to do the centeral lines!

I was not happy with the way my 1st Hop To It block (#12) was coming along,  so have changed the backgroound fabric and am re-doing my small pieces.

I hope to get some applique done before and during the next FNSI.... or mabe the WCQ??

Or ..... shock horror ... both!!

Whole Cloth Quilt and a bit more play.

Pleased to say things are becoming good again!

I have come off my happy pills and have come back to life!!

Have been playing for the last week or so.

Here is my practise piece on the left  and the quilting beginning of my Whole Cloth Quilt.

So that is what I will do first...the center, then it will be back to the practise piece, which is 1/4 of the WCQ,  and work out what section for the next bit - huge way to go - and I have already been frogging some.

I have a problem with one corner not being square - not quite sure what to do - maybe I will undo some of the basting and try sorting it a bit ...  still thinking on that one.

The beginning of my Hop To It BOM  that Joanne of Thread Head and Wendy of Inky Threads are doing - I am a long way behind.

I started off being very organised

And then ... this is my studio cutting table tonight.

Wouldnt you think that picking fabrics would be easy :)

If you look closely in the foreground is what I have been making today .... more on that later
