We took a week away near Weymouth and had another week of family time, but I still managed to clock up a few finishes in August.
Firstly, I was able to reveal the mini-quilt prize I made for Rhonda at the end of July...
There were Bee blocks for Sarah...
... and also an eventual finish with a zip! ...
Phone cases...
Hexies...
... and a little Mystery...
A mini prezzie for Lizzie...
FWQAL blocks at long last...
... and my first 241 Tote...
I was lucky enough to win some lovely fabric from both Lizzie and Renee & Yvonne, plus a Jelly Roll from Mandy at Simply Solids; I got a spot on Rhonda's podcast and Cindy's Name Game, and also won a place in Pings' Japanese Scrap Bag Challenge!!
Some wonderful pressies came my way too...
There was the start of the Across the Sea QAL...
... and also a little shopping and behind the scenes preparation for my November Bee blocks (Mwaah ha ha - so excited!), and quite a bit of secrecy with Project 51, which I am so proud to say can be revealed really soon.
Oh, and this bargain baby...
I have to admit that even I am surprised at how much I was able to fit in!
September is going to be an even busier month, with Goodie swaping, QALs and the competition to make for. School will be back and the girls will be starting for the first time on Tuesday! I go back to work next week too and I'm shattered just thinking about it.
Anyone got any energy going spare, I think I am going to need extra!
Blimey Hadders you've had one heck of a month - BTW my sister was in Weymouth at the same time as you - I wonder if you rubbed shoulders! And what is project 51 - email me in secret, I won't let on. I promise.
