I am being norti ...



I am doing stuff I should not be doing .. 

with this .... 


and ..... 


Not doing the thing I should be doing ...



with this .... 





but .... I am having fun .... haha !!!!


It's been awhile

since I last posted anything here in my blog ... the year has just gone by so fast ... And it is almost Christmas again .... The days go by faster and faster ... or is it that I am just getting slower and slower ...
all I know is ... if this keeps up ... there won't be enough time left in my day to get out of bed ...

I have been doing so sewing ... and playing catch up on my block swap commitments ... I finally got my September and October swaps in the mail ... along with Novembers .... so currently I am all caught up .... 

These are the blocks I have mailed out for my partners


For Janet in Canada ... 



For Lorraine in New Zealand 



for Cheryl in Western Australia


and these are the swap blocks I have received back so far ... 

6 inch blocks from Janet .. 


and from Lyndell .. a 12 inch block .. 
and an extra surprise ... 4 cute little scrappy blocks .. 




and these are 12 inch blocks for this swap group ... 


for Robyn R in New South Wales .. 



for Heather G in Nova Scotia .. Canada ... 



for Lyndell in South Australia .. 



I have also made a Santa Mug Rug for another group I am in .. 
here is a pic of it ... I think it is cute ... 




I also finished off this coffee mug bag that I started a few years ago ... I am not sure why it was never finished before now ... maybe it had something to do with it being at the bottom of one of my many tubs of UFO's ... ... I really need to do something about all them too .... one day .... 

here is a pic of it ... 

I have done a couple of other things too but have not taken pics of them yet .... I will get around to that soon .... but until then I hope to get more sewing done this weekend ... I have a grandson having a birthday late next month and I do need to have a quilt done for him ... so ... that has to be my number one priority now ... I have the fabrics for it ... and I started out with a pattern in mind .. but .. that has changed ... and changed again ... so now I am not sure which of the three I am going to do .. haha ... I really should not have tampered with the original plan .... cos now I have no idea which one to pick ... haha .... maybe I should put them in a hat and pick one and be done with it ... 
but stay tuned because there will be photos of this soon ...
