Patchwork Cards
I’ve been working on patchwork cards …
I foundation piece the cards using my embroidery machine – I’m happy to share the designs.

Applique (Machine Embroidery)
I finished Miss A’s pony …
and Miss P’s dinosaur
I’m a bit disappointed with the dinosaur – the pink I used for the outline it too pink.
The pony and the dinosaur designs come from here.
My plan is to add them to a T-Shirt tomorrow.

Pony in Progress
I’ve been working on the pony design all day (off and on). My machine informed me it would take 46 minutes, but that’s just sewing time and once you take into account trimming the applique fabric and changing the thread it takes much longer even if you’re doing nothing else – whereas I’ve had a few other jobs to do today as well.

Applique T-Shirts
Miss A wanted a Pony T-Shirt.
I’ve put it all together in Embird. The pony and flower are from Designs by Juju. The alphabet I use in the label is one of Embird’s alphabets (22 I think) and I make the satin stitched borders in Thred.
This is Miss P (who – of course – wanted a dinosaur).
The Dinosaur design is also from Designs by Juju.
I’m hoping to get them stitched out tomorrow – Miss A is back at school!

Alphabet Quilt – O
This one didn’t register very well and if I have any fabric left at the end I will make another.

Alphabet Quilt Block – N
Another block finished – and yes that does mean a bit more ironing got done.

A Return to the Alphabet Quilt
I’ve finished another block for my Alphabet Quilt.
I like to do machine embroidery while tackling the ironing. It means I can keep an eye on my machine and the ironing doesn’t seem as tedious.
I still have an ironing pile so ‘N’ might happen today as well …
Oh and this is my 200th post – how cool is that?

Hot-Water Bottle Cover Finished
I finished my hot-water bottle cover. It was an extremely easy (and quick) project. It’s not quite perfect – the position of the eyelets is too low. I should have tried it on the hot-water bottle and started the double rib 5cm later (if that makes sense).
Designs by JuJu are having a buy 1 get 3 free sale (until the end of June). I picked up these sets …
