I was off to a great start sewing along with all the virtual stitchers.....
yesterday I made these hexies for Miss Matty's Parlour, doesn't look like much when I see them now but they are fiddly little devils....
Worked on a secret swap pressie.....
Today has been a better ....
I was going to work on a quilt that is waiting on my design wall but other things had to come first.
First I had a very brisk 3 km walk.....
when I got home "Pippa" was waiting for her morning games....
She loves chasing her ball ....
Followed with a lovely cuppa and biscuits of course.....
another hexie on the way, I found a lovely sunny spot to spend a few quiet moments.
I finished the last 3 blocks of "Love Among the Roses"
only the sashings and borders to do, then to have it quilted.
I did finish the swap pressie but that will have to wait for another time.
Block 32 Splendid Sampler
Well that is it for my weekends work....
holy cow I'm sure I did more than that..... seemed like more ....
I did do some washing.... I guess that took some time.
Thanks so much for the link up Chooky......
hopefully everyone achieved more than I did....
Toodles till next time.....

Hello Helen
those hexies are fantastic, I know how much work goes into them. What I also noticed was your wooden little box you had your cottons on, where did you get it, its just darling.
Gorgeous hexies.
Love your hexies and yes very fiddley, great weekend stitching oh and playing with Pippa :)
you are doing some lovely different projects - and they all require lots of work ...

I think its a lot more than you give yourself credit for...Love among the roses will be so lovely when it is done...a lot of work on that and those hexies take a lot of planning and cutting...great progress.
lots of bits and pieces done.....you did well and a good walk is very important.......we were w bit restricted with the rain but did manage quite a few laps around the outer house yard which was not to bad......but the creek and watercourses run all around the house...........
Your hexies look great, looks like a good sized pile to me! Your heart blocks and your SS blocks all are lovely too - sounds like a full weekend with the walk and Pippa to entertain as well!
Fantastic hexies and blocks....such a cute little doggie x
