For us is was a relaxing weekend, which itself is out of the ordinary, and hence very welcome. We have watched family DVDs, The Lorax and The Pirates, taken in some Christmas films on TV and I even made a casserole and apple crumble today; I know in a months time I will be feeling frazzled, so it was nice to have a little time to take it easy.
This coming week we have Parents' Evening, Swimming, Ballet, Cubs, a Beaver trip and Recorder concert all before an Inset Day on Friday, so I am not hoping for great things in the making department.
But having laid out my plans last Sunday I managed to achieve the lot, and more!
I managed to get a couple of blocks made for Bee Blessed and waited all week for better light for the photos, but I had to snap these this morning so I can mail them this week...
All the strips of hexies for my Mum's cushion are now made...
...and I only have one edge of binding on my Retro Flowers left to stitch down this evening - woo hoo!
So this week... I aim to join Mum's hexies into a panel, decide on and make my Brit Bee Secret Santa pressie, mail my Bee Blessed blocks, Stitch Tease Secret Santa thingumy and LV Swap fabric, make a wall hanging for the downstairs toilet so the wall looks less scruffy at Christmas, finalise my Christmas Gift sewing list and make something for the Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day!!!
Easy eh!?
Oh my, that's quite a list of activities and projects!! Roll on next weekend ;o)
ReplyDeleteI'd hate to see a packed filled weekend!!!!!😄
ReplyDeleteOK, you have a plan, I like the watching the movies part, keep that in mind as you run about all week.

ReplyDeleteYour next week sounds like my last week - Parents' Evening, Book Club, school trip, husband away, the usual after school guff etc. Needless to say I got absolutely nothing done!
ReplyDeleteLove the low volume hexagons - this is going to be absolutely beautiful when it is all done x
Once again your ambition and ability to complete tasks has me in awe. I am sitting out giveaway day this time.
ReplyDeleteYou'll knock that list off with your eyes closed!...Go on, I dare you!
ReplyDeleteWell, not much to do then. Good lord, woman, you are going to work yourself to the bone!
