Friday Night Sew-In...The Results...

Last night was Friday Night Sew-In for November, hosted once again by Heidi & Bobbi...so it was into the sewing room for a night of stitching...I decided on progress for some small projects...first up out with the light box for a spot of tracing of stitchery designs for some stitching group related projects...that done I turned my attention to Smith the Dog...

...given he'd been waiting for his hind legs and a face for six weeks it was only fair that his turn should come...he is a colourful happy fellow...


I did start stitching one of the aforementioned tracing jobs thinking that as it had the least amount of backstitching I might get it done also...huh! that was the theory, in practice not so much...I used a variegated thread but it isn't working out quite right so will have to be reversed for another go...it has the latest deadline so can wait.


Apparently Victoria now has a monsoon season and it is today...need a wetsuit and flippers to leave the house so darn shame have been forced to get some stitching done on the other stitcheries I traced.


Hope your weekend is productive...thanks Heidi & Bobbi for the "push" to get a couple of small achieves under the belt to start the weekend.


Happy Stitching

Smith is an absolute cutie! I just said Awwwwwww out loud when I saw him.

The weather here today looks kind of sucky. I'm hosting family breakfast this morning and then heading for the sewing room for the rest of the day . Best place to be when the weather is questionable!
