Busy as always!!!
Am still working on my fushion quilt and it is taking a lots of time getting the blanket stitching done but I just work at it when I have a bit of spare time. Also my Nina sewing machine had to go to in for a service, but its due anyway. I don't use her as often as I should because I prefer hand stitching but she does understand me very well and I do take care of her very well. hehehehe I tend to grow attached to some of my special items.

Fun Stitching around the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
http://www.sugarlane-designs.com/p/friday-night-sew-in-fnsi.html

I have decided to join in this fun group and am sure its lots of fun stitching around the world.
I am still busy with my "Fushion Quilt" Takes a bit of time to get all the blanket stitching done, but am trying to get around 10 blocks a week finished. There are 100 blocks to be completed before I join them all together. I need to get some more stitching done and with the inspiration of this group its is possible.

A Scrap Challenge Quilt
This is my scrap challenge quilt and was said not to buy any new fabric to make the top.
Also when I finished cutting the small squares I was to just put them in a bag and take one block at a time and just sew together. Well this is the end product and I am very impressed with this scrap way of doing a quilt. I have always had themes and also colors to use, so its a first for me doing it this way. Now just to sandwich and quilt it.
