Friday Night Sew In....

At last I was home for a Friday Night Sew In.
The last two that were held were on nights where I was working.  Very sad face here.  But that all changed last night.  Yayy, happy dance. 
I was able to sit and sew all night in a nice quiet house.  Well, I did have High School Musical on in the background, but don't tell anyone!
I started by glueing down my circle and leaf shapes for the Princess Feather border, then got stitching.

Those circles take ages to stitch around, luckily they're only small!
Next up is to glue and stitch down the flower shapes at the end of the stems- more circles : )  .

Feels great to be doing some stitching at the moment. 
I've finished appliqueing half of the leaves and all the birds onto the first border for my Princess Feather quilt.
Quite a bit of preparation involved in this, but once it's done, I can just stitch away.

Off to pick my fabrics for the remainder of the leaves and then it's on to the berries.  Why do these quilts have so many little circles?

Progress.

Well, some progress on the Princess Feather border yesterday.
Amazing what a day on your own will bring!  Even better, today is more of the same.
Lots of stitching around here at the moment.  It feels really good.

 Luckily there are lots of large pieces in this border, so it stitches up quite quickly.
