Well my planned Friday Night Sew In was a bust… Have been struggling with insomnia for the last 10 days, with resulting fatique, headaches and general aches and pains.

I missed last month’s sew in – not that I wasn’t sewing, just that I wasn’t around to flaunt my work, as I was away on retreat.

My plans for a Friday night of major preparation of some new projects, bit the dust early! I’ve had 3 really early starts at work this week, and back to back meetings, so by Friday and a 7.00am start I was running on fumes. Add to that a warmish, windy couple of days creating sinus [...]

Another finish for me this week, am on a roll! This is a Debbie Draper design from The Gift of Stitching’s May 2009 issue. Stitched using Threadworx Bleeding Hearts on white linen. I started this as a Stitch Along with Claire and Sandra, but of course, I lagged behind, but was determined to catch up [...]
