the shoulder is behaving sort of but me thinks as soon as i go to work it will freeze up again...not sure what the outcome will be really, quite annoying to say the least...Yes coaly i can sew now, try and stop me lol am just making up 2 cot duvets for a friend at mo then need to finish the covers for my grandies rumpus cushions...just cant seem to get away from cushion covers, oh well keeping me out of mischief...what are you sewing?

grizzvk - 2013-05-22 13:50:00

Gidday Shell thanks for the cuppa. we have sunshine here Shell since about 11 this morning before that was rain.
Grizz so pleased you can sew yay oooh would be such a long day if nothing could be made :( can we see pics when cushions and duvets are made pleaseeeee, cushions are fun to make, I really don't need anymore cushions and kids don't need any but then again they didn't need all the quilts I made them either hahaha
the scrap quilt that a few days ago I thought would be 2 quilts is one again ! LOL it just couldn't make up its mind what it was haha but anyways still working on that.
Jugs boiling ....help yourselves ....

Ok all those with sun shine its time to share please! Its persisting doon here, plus fog and feel like its been dark for days! We are over it! Perfect sewing weather I hear you say? You would think so, wouldn't you, but little has got done.

So Grizz and Holly, how cruel to leave us (me) in suspense... which Craftsy class did you guys sign up for???

Snazzy bag Judy!

Jumbo, I see Gloria Loughman is teaching a class here in Dn in July. Great to see our Craftsy instructors making it over to our neck of the woods. Have you started her class yet?

Yum cushions Grizz! You may have noticed my furniture is sadly lacking them... one word... Sassy!!! Hehe I heard you were going to sew a duvet for our dear buddy... didn't realise it was plural tho! So its all keeping you out of mischief is it? Hmmm that will make a change hehehehe.

It's it's Coallie, you forgot about snupper. I've been stitching in my room. Where are you all.
i Had a very quiet non eventfull day at work, thank goodness. Even managed to do some hand stitching on a quilt. Sitting in bed now as its time for my beauty sleep. Nite nite from me.

Is it Wednesday already? Last time I looked it was Sunday .... I think. I have been so busy this week I have hardly been on line although I do have a vague memory of reading something about brooms .....
Tomorrow doesn't promise to be any quieter .... Wish I was busy in the sewing room and not at work. Roll on 2016 when I can draw me pension.
Have a grandie's 3rd birthday on Sunday and another one is 9 next week plus I think I have two sleeping over on Saturday night. They have asked for a sleepover at Gramma's. it's lovely that they still want to stay at ages 11 and almost 9. Have an almost 14 year old staying the following weekend. I need to gather up some embroidery cottons for her as she is into making friendship bracelets. Silly me sold all mine last year when I realised I was never going to do cross stitch again. Never thought about the grand kids wanting them. I had 100s too. Oh well, will start keeping an eye out at op shops and garage sales.
Hope everyone is well, specially Twi.

Goody goody morning from my nice warm bed with my darling black pussy cat keeping me company. Looks a bit glum outside today...maybe grandie is back at school and I will have a quieter day in my shed. I love having them here but don't get much done...
Good to hear from grizz and ivy and bar...hope poor bar gets some sewing time soon. I would be losted without my time stitching. I have a query though. Why does the point of the needle find the same spot in the finger underneath when you are quilting? I have a calloused area of pin pricks with a raw pink spot in the middle that gets punctured too often...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY J. Enjoy your family dinner tonight.
Better get outta the sack before the day slips away on me. Have a great one yourselves.

Afternoon all,
I have just had a lovely lunch out with my uncle, was nice to get out of the house. I am sitting here trying to teach myself to crochet in rows as I am sick of just doing squares, might have to go googling.
Happy birthday to twis daughter.

Hellooooo. I have been out in my shed all day and still cannot see a hole in my scraps. I've tried some feathers this afternoon and am now in quilting some of them. I have done a few drunkards path blocks just for fun and have been quilting those. Shame about the unpicking...but when I've had my cuppa I will return to the shed. Everyone happy?

jumbobon - 2013-05-23 15:33:00

Evening all, some great work being made, all looks lovely.
Happy birthday to L. Have a great day.
Shell, maybe get a book for the library on crochet, there are some lovely book out there. Nice to be taken to for lunch, lucky you.
Cold night here tonight, dinner time. See you'll later.

How's the crochet going shell? No pictures yet coalie...talk about dribble...the feathers are being quilted on the drunkards path blocks that I made. Big ones. Only four! So not as productive as grizz.
What's for tea? Muttley is going to give me a call when he has completed all meetings...then I shall have to think real fast!

jumbobon - 2013-05-23 18:40:00

Well done Grizz .... Love what you have done. Very nice.
I managed about 2 hours sewing this afternoon. Am making a crumb quilt for the cat who has started sleeping on one of Mum's lovely antique office chairs. Decided to make a small quilt to put over the seat. I was half way through the quilting, free motion, when a friend arrived. Should get it finished tomorrow.

Up you get. Breakfast is on the table. Guess who was up until 12:40? Time slipped away on me and I was having fun making wee owls for pincushions. I might get some lead balls today to weight them down. They would make good missiles too...
Have a great day.
