Stash Bee Bock of the Month

 

August is definitely over and it's much cooler, allowing us to get back to our sewing rooms. I've had three lovely packages this week. Three more are in the post with one more to follow. I love all of the fabrics - Karen Lewis, Lizzy's House and Alison Glass seem popular choices to us.

Don't the blocks received so far look great together. I think I'll have enough to make a ladder quilt and perhaps two quilts to donate for Quilts for Care Leavers.

I received two customer quilts on Monday and will start working on them today, then I have two more to call in. I don't like too many piling up as it makes me anxious. I also have a table runner to quilt for Lizzie and then my star quilts towards the end of the month.

A small forest for Anne

 

It' bad news for my Atelier 7, it can't be fixed locally so needs to be sent to England for repair. I need to review my options and decide what to do. In the meantime, I have used my Siger featherweight to make these blocks for the Stash Bee for Anne. I have made this block before so spent two hours making five pairs of blocks for Anne which were posted yesterday.

The tutorial for the block can be found here.
