I really did plan to come back and post in June, truly, but somehow it disappeared right before my eyes!
With many work commitments taking up my time I have had little time to sew so not much to show you. I have had quite a few nights out of the house and a short trip to New Zealand ....which is lovely....wish I could have stayed for a bit of touristing.
I haven't yet bound the red and white quilt, though I did square it up this afternoon, so hopefully I will sew the binding on tomorrow.
I have finished the next pair of Caswell blocks
love the red bird!
I finished sewing "the bag". I really didn't need a bag but I saw the Amy Butler Weekend Bag and got the bug.
To be honest I'm not much of a sewer, and this bag was hard and fiddly. It took a lot more time than I thought it would. But it's finished and it's CUTE but far from perfect.
The pattern doesn't have much internal division. I added a pocket to the bag and bought these
to help me keep things in order. Overall I'm happy..........and glad it's finished.
The last thing for today is another sneak peek.........thank you Katrina for the beautiful quilting you have sewn on this quilt. You are an artist! The more I look the more I see.
If you would like to see more before I get a chance to post about Sallie Ann, do visit Katrina's blog.
That's it for today....my fingers need to do something!

Caswell blocks are looking very nice indeed, it will be lovely to see them all together sometime. Sally Anne has been finished to a T. Katrina certainly has done a supurb job. You must be super thrilled.
