No Peaking

O.K. just a little peak



I left for quilting yesterday with this basket full and another very large bag of stuffing.  I arrived home after lots of laughter , good wishes and much less poly fill.

Today there will be riding in the car time  so I will get to sew. Yeah!!   I need this done for Sunday.

If you recognise the shape shush don't tell.  If you don't (or even if you do) check back for The Big Reveal on Sunday Evening.

Till whenever enjoy the season. I sure am  Terry

Practice

I've been practicing Y seams.



I'm practicing so I can "make perfect" Y seams  Ha Ha. Just hoping for better . This is a 5" square and there is a lining as well making 8 Y's in all.


I'm getting my small square fix as  in this project.


and color hit
                                and 15 minutes play
                                                                it's an Ort catcher!! What's an ort?  You don't know
                                                                                                                                (neither did I)


An ort is a scrap of thread  so this is a thread catcher with a fancy name .


I have another one up to the stage of Yseams off to practice and then to GD's Dance concert late this afternoon.

Happy Lazy Sunday
Terry
