Gosh, doesn't the time just fly by when you're not looking?
I've slowly been working on some more of my Summer School project.  I'm getting quite used to stitching 1/4" hexagons together.  I've finished the 9 centre blocks, these will be stitched onto a centre panel, and now I'm moving onto the border of coffin shapes to go around the centre panel.

I received a copy of Vignette recently.  Besides lots of eye candy, it also has some lovely projects.  I was particularly drawn to a mystery block of the month.   I sourced the fat quarters of "Sweet Broderie" by Rosalie Quinlan, and some Lecien Basics fabrics.  The quilt has embroidery in Cosmo threads on linen intermingled with the blocks.  Today I received my parcel of threads from Gum Valley Patchwork near Warrnambool.
Such lovely thread, such beautiful colours.   Lucky me, Linda even popped a couple of extra threads into the parcel.

The colours in this fabric are so fresh and yummy.

Just to bring me back to earth, I've actually been spending quite a bit of time altering school uniforms for the start of the school year.  What a waste of good sewing time- taking up hems!  LOL.
