I had intended to be part of WIP Wednesday, did it happen...NOPE! I am still working on projects I can't share ( yet) so I needed to find something I could share and also filled the category of I need this crossed off my to do list. I am starting to believe that list is really not something that I will ever get to the end. I am not complaining since every stitch I take...I learn something new...every seam I rip...I know not to do that again...EVER! The second part does not always take but I still keep on sewing and loving every minute.
This Wednesday was really cool since Amy and Becky came over to sew with me. It has been a long while since we have gotten together for a sewing playdate. The house was a mess but there is always room at the table for sewing machines :o)
I decided to work on the pillows my daughter in law had asked for last Christmas ( yes, I am really that behind). It is the one in the right hand of the screen. All Amy Butler...all gorgeous! I hope she will love them as much as I do.
And Becky brought these adorable bins to share. I cannot say what they are for but can say they were not all for me :o(
I am saving the final photos of the pillows for Sewjo Saturday!
Do you have sewing playdates with friends?
Once a month on a Monday one sister and I get together to see. This Monday we joined my mom. And once a month on a Saturday my other 3 sister and 2 sisters-in-law and my Mom get together. It's a fun and productive time.
ReplyDeletehow good to get together with friends for a day of sewing. I think a friend is coming to me next wednesday for a sewing session, she wants to learn how to do hardanger so I must get my act together and get everything together that I will need, fingers crossed all goes well
ReplyDeleteAlas no, no sew dates here, but looks like you had a great time :o)
ReplyDeleteI sadly have had no sewing playdates, at least not yet! It sounds like such a fun time! I love Becky's small bins she made- I've done one (so far) for my Clover clips to keep by my sewing machine.
ReplyDeleteFun, a sewing play date! Until I started getting to know my local quilting community, and joined my MQG, I never had sewing playdates, but now I do occasionally. None of my friends sew, aside from my new quilty friends. : )
ReplyDeleteLove the pillow! I agree about never getting to the end of my sewing to do list. I find that a couple of projects tend to stay on the list, because other more time-sensitive projects come along and push the less urgent projects aside. I'm sure that happens to us all!
