Winter coming and long evenings in so I expect lots of crafty stuff coming up. I have found a new patchwork group so hope to complete my wall hanging and go on to new projects.

It'll be a while Pat. Have to the joining strips and then the outer edge and then back it, wad it, and then either quilt or complete the back and edging and quilt. Not sure how this new teacher does things yet. I'm using just 9 of the original blocks cos I didn't like 3 of them but I've found 2 more part made and could make another to give me 3 x 4. Lots to think about.

Loads of fabric Pat. An embarrassment of fabric for clothes, curtains and patchwork........... Doesn't mean I always have what I need or can resist temptation.
Sweet dreams.

My mum's been a prolific knitter all her life, but, at 94, her sight is now too poor to do anything more complex than blanket squares, of which she can turn out three a day. I sew them together to make metre square baby blankets, and a lady at our church gets them sent out to blind people in Malawi. This was a very nice picture of the two of us knitting and sewing, but for some reason, I can only get one edge of the picture to load.

Lyn, your blanket is gorgeous.
Glad to see this lovely thread is having a revival.

That sounds pretty complicated. Have you already got your fabric stash?
Going to bed soon. Catch you tomorrow maybe.

Josusa, you need to edit it down to a smaller size.
Try using this to reduce it - http://resizeyourimage.com/EN/#transform=&page_no=1&no_of_pages=1&filename=3.jpg&selection_top=36&selection_left=54&selection_width=428&selection_height=285&zoom=893&demomode=true
