Another school day done and dusted. It was fantabulisticacious . Apart from the fire alarm just as I finished duty at lunch time...so no lunch for me today! Oh woe is me!! Never mind because I had lunch when I came home.

jumbobon - 2013-03-22 15:52:00

where is every one, kinda quiet in here. I know its Friday night, but but but what have you all been stitching today. Come on fez up.

skippie1 - 2013-03-22 19:09:00

no stiching for me today Got way way sidetracked completely
Hope to get some sewing done on the weekend.
Whats for snupper????????

dilligaf_dah - 2013-03-22 19:40:00

Snupper? I've only just had a burger for tea...and not home made either! I might go and look in my shed. I have a confession skippie. I had a big big nana nap.

jumbobon - 2013-03-22 19:46:00

Jumbo you must have needed it.
Dilli what side tracked you from stitching.
Snupper, I have only just finished dinner, if that's what I can call it. Grandies are here tonight and they realllllllly would like pizza for T. Well it made it easy for me and pizza they got.
Yippee I finished my scrappy Japanese quilt, and I have to fezz up. Received a book that I ordered a few weeks back, its mostly on Red and White Quilts, really nice book. But but also received my red Kaffe Fassett fabric stash today from Hancocks, mind you all sale fabrics, so that was allowed. SO NOW, NO more fabric buying, I have to repeat it every day to myself otherwise I might get weak and buy more.

skippie1 - 2013-03-22 20:41:00

skippie I had a pick up and delivery to do today and the pick up took hours of me time. the flamin bus only went once an hour. Just missed it going and had to wait 55 min for the return one also so wasted 3 hours.. So got home late. grrrrrrrrrr
Have a school gala to go to tomorra morning so Sunday ALL day will be sewing.

dilligaf_dah - 2013-03-22 20:52:00

Hi Skippie - love the quilt. Is it the dissapearing 9 patch? I want to make a black, white and red patterned fabric one. Did you use up all your scraps?

ffloss - 2013-03-22 22:28:00

Yes floss, disappearing nine patch. Still have lots of scraps. These are all Japanese fabrics.

skippie1 - 2013-03-22 22:43:00

thanks for coffee Dilli, next time just use your broom instead of buses ;)
Gorgeous quilt Skippie yes it does look rich very nice.
ive been brushing chenille and blobbing, did some gardening and the lawns, was a lovely day for it.
sweet dreams .....

coalrange1 - 2013-03-22 22:49:00

went to peta mathis tonight boy does she have a great singing voice
was a great evening only complaint it was bloody cold in the hall :(
looks like everyone has had a great day
skippie love the quilt :)

twilight23 - 2013-03-22 22:55:00

Thank for all the positive comments on my quilt.
Oh dear Twi, nothing worse then being cod. As all you can think about is how to try and keep warm and not shiver. I do believe PETA ad some voice training, but I have not heard her sing.

skippie1 - 2013-03-22 23:01:00

Lovely quilt Skippie ..is that a disappearing nine patch? I have been AWOL from the MB today (or should I say yesterday) .. Been finishing off a quilt and starting another project. My wee grandie who was so sick this week is turning 5 next Thursday and her dad tells me she would love an apron as she always helps her mum with baking. So I have bought a pattern which can be used for children, adults and dolls and is reversible. It's very cute. I could have made one without a pattern but wanted something just a bit special. Found three lovely coordinating fabrics in my stash and cut it out. Sewing will commence tomorrow morning. I think dolly will get a matching one too.

barbrose - 2013-03-23 01:53:00

Morning All
Jugs on and brekkie is served.

Good moaning! I slept the sleep of the dead last night...it were lubberly. Housework must come first today because I work next week as well...I don't like housework so my reward is to visit skippie and friend when I have finished.
Thanks sooooo much for breakfast...it gave me the energy I need to get going so I best get started before the energy leaves.
Have an awesome day.

jumbobon - 2013-03-23 10:24:00

Gaw Jumbo half the day is gone, did you sleep this late. You must have been tired.
Kettle is on for a coffee. Eh hum, my housework is done. Must say was badly needed with 4 cats in the house.

skippie1 - 2013-03-23 10:47:00

Love the quilt Skippie. I love all the different ways a disappearing nine patch can be configured. This was my effort a few years ago.

coalrange1 - 2013-03-23 20:29:00

and nite nite from me

coalrange1 - 2013-03-23 22:31:00

Thanks for snupper Coallie, we decided no more stitching tonight, instead we hope to make it an early morning.
I broke my own pledge and bought some fabric today from Spotlight. Was a bargain not to be missed, beautiful deep red Japanese print fabric, was priced down to $8. Per meter then I got another 30% of that, which made it $5.60 pm, yep so I bought the 5.3 m, will make a great quilt backing.

skippie1 - 2013-03-23 23:11:00

Sounds like a lot of fun
Have a good start early tomorra skippie fabric sounds great - good buy.
Thanks for the snupper coalie - just what I needed
