I’ve managed to get some computer time while the girls are still in bed (it’s nearly 11.30 a.m!)

They are spending their days chatting on MSN and updating their blogs every few minutes.

I took this sneaky picture yesterday afternoon – they’ll kill me if they find out.

Alex is on the left and that’s Magali on the right

Right – on to what’s happening in the sewing corner this week.

Remember Ab Fab? The fabric I got at Riberac Brocante last year.

And here is the bit I’ve quilted close up.

I’m really quite pleased with myself.   Stitches are getting smaller and more even.  I’ve got 3 different needles on the go – a size 10 quilting needle for normal quiltilng thread, a bigger one for 3 stranded floss and one for the perle 8.  My stitches vary in size depending what needle I’m using, but I’m pleased with it, even though it’s still a bit bumpy.  The baptist fans went a bit off course – I’m trying to do these literally free hand with no markings

My project for Tonya’s Summer Class is going well too AND I’m piecing together Quilt No. 7 over at the Qs4L blog.

Taking the girls into Perigueux for the afternoon and hoping to get into one of the QS’s.  I have decided I really do need the very long Omigrid ruler.

Donc, a+
