March 2025 achievements

Apparently, it was all about the clothes in March despite it being a very busy month and April is looking equally busy.


My March Guild UFO was another mini quilt for SCBU using a Me Time Delivered embroidery file.


I finished the Drew sweatshirt by Tilly and the buttons which I started in February. The fabric is Chicacheetah Jersey from Guthrie & Ghani.


I completed the Drew dress by Fabric Godmother in time for our day trip to The Stitch Festival.



I completed the Aspen sweatshirt by Tilly & the buttons in fabric from By Graziela. The ribbing needs replacing as it was too thick. I sized down by a couple of sizes but I still think I could size down more.

April 2025 plans

A busy month is on the horizon with three trips away. I definitely need to finish off some projects this month and hope to get to:

Woven stars - Just a few more blocks to stitch and then I can start laying them out and make into a quilt top.

Ruby Star anniversary quilt - I have half of the penultimate blocks sewn up and some of the final blocks cut out. I might take the blocks to the retreat at the end of the month to finish the quilt top.

Drew sweatshirt in grey - perhaps using the new projector that we've purchased. Affiliate link https://amzn.to/4hzHGbY and there's currently a £30 discount voucher available. The fabric was a gift from a friend who found five metres at a local charity shop.

Spring quaker by Primrose Stitches which has progressed to about half complete.

Guild UFO #7 MeTime delivered September 2024. Instructions are printed out so I need to cut the fabric ready to stitch this weekend.



I purchased three metres of this fabric in Shaukat in London to make either an Aspen dress or another dress.
