Happy Halloween to those that celebrate, we don't but we use to. Our daughter's birthday is 31st October, so of course all birthdays growing up were Halloween themed. I still put up the bunting and a flag I bought in the USA some years ago, and this year we have a flag pole to put it on.
With a visitor staying the past few weeks, not a lot of sewing happened. I have just finished a quick applique onto a sweater (granddaughters word - I call it a jumper 😊) for my granddaughters Halloween costume for a school charity event. Tuesday is going to be 34 degrees here (93F) and she will be wearing a 'sweater'. The Character is Mabel Pines - a Disney Character apparently.
October's Rainbow Scrap Colour is neutrals. I really did not have time to even get our the scraps and start, so I simply carried on with the aqua blocks from September.
In the past three weeks I was only able to complete Block 5 of Moda blockheads5 - Southern Star designed by Jenelle Kent. I'm 2 blocks behind now and a new pattern will be released on Thursday (my time) I really like the way the purple blocks are turning out.
The Christmas picnic quilt and bunting will also look great.This last week I started Bonnie Hunter's new sew along - Star of Hope. I'm not sure what I will make, or who I will give it to ..... that's something to think about in the future.
Oh my gosh - look at how busy crazy you are! That Jumper ( haha) is so cute - but really 93? and she is going to wear it ... shew - that sounds warm!!
ReplyDeleteYour Aquas are so pretty - I can see why you would want to keep working on them!!! Go you!! and stay cool!! ( we started at 8F this morning)
