WiP Wednesday ...

Do you realise how dependent we all are on electricity? The power was off yesterday due to some or other problem somewhere, and we all sat around here, twiddling our thumbs. At least I got to clean up my sewing space and organise myself a little more.

Most of my projects are now just waiting for their "due date" at the end of the month and I don't really want to start anything new or big in the mean time - sooooo, I only done something small. LOL! My hands must be busy doing something or I think they might get up and leave.

This is another block that is part of the whole "ye olde garden" blocks.
Both blocks are the same, only the colours have changed. I was thinking of a large 'table mat' - 18" (46cm). The pattern can be traditionally made or even paper pieced and will be in my Craftsy Shop.



 I hope everyone who has signed up for the Art Quilt is getting really excited. I know I am!!! The instructions for the fabrics and colour charts will go out on Monday 24 Feb. so that you can go out there and hunt down just the right colour.
Anyone else still wanting to join us  - the information is on the Art Quilt QAL page on the top of the blog.
We start on 1 March and each week we do 1 block.


Our other two Block of the Month blocks will also be available soon and I hope those of you who are participating in this are just as excited to do a new block......




That's it for Wednesday...

One more thing before I'm off to do laundry.... 
I've opened up space to place a small 'ad' for quilting bloggers. Visit the sponsor info page for all the details. Thanks

Yes, you're quite right. I think it's a shock how reliant we are on the internet too! I feel really put out when it goes down in my corner of the world, there's just so much I do online that I don't like not having instant access! Cute blocks, can't wait to see some made up, thanks for sharing.
