They are spending their days chatting on MSN and updating their blogs every few minutes.
I took this sneaky picture yesterday afternoon - they'll kill me if they find out.
Alex is on the left and that's Magali on the right
Right - on to what's happening in the sewing corner this week.
Remember Ab Fab? The fabric I got at Riberac Brocante last year.
And here is the bit I've quilted close up.
I'm really quite pleased with myself. Stitches are getting smaller and more even. I've got 3 different needles on the go - a size 10 quilting needle for normal quiltilng thread, a bigger one for 3 stranded floss and one for the perle 8. My stitches vary in size depending what needle I'm using, but I'm pleased with it, even though it's still a bit bumpy. The baptist fans went a bit off course - I'm trying to do these literally free hand with no markings
My project for Tonya's Summer Class is going well too AND I'm piecing together Quilt No. 7 over at the Qs4L blog.
Taking the girls into Perigueux for the afternoon and hoping to get into one of the QS's. I have decided I really do need the very long Omigrid ruler.
Donc, a+
Oh, Clare! It's looking great! I remember that fabric -- who could forget it? ;-)
