I have had a productive January and it feels good. I only have one project that I didn't touch this month which is Ruby and Ralph - a cross stitch project.
Our Guild UFO challenge for January 2025 was number 4. I played around with the colours of this block and made a mini quilt for SCBU.
I bound my Fraction quilt - pattern by Lou Orth and love the striped binding. I wasn't sure on the background that I chose but it has worked well.
I finished one cross stitch project this month. Pear and Partridge by Pigeon Coop Designs. I finished it in a hoop, and I'm pleased with how it's come out.
I completed the Booklet Pouch - pattern by Aneela Hoey. A great mix of Tula Pink fabrics. I even remembered to add a label and used some of the selvedge to add interest.
During my January sew date over Facebook Messenger with Lizzie, my daughter, I made the Frankie top by Tilly and the Buttons with fabric from Ghani and Guthrie. It's my new favourite top. I've just been on the Guthrie and Ghani website, and they've restocked this fabric in two colours, so an order has been placed.
I also finished my Second Cassie dress - pattern by Emporia Designs. All I needed to do was hem the sleeves and body of the dress.
