This afternoon we settled down with a few of the Christmas Sky+ leftovers, including Madagascar 2, and I got on with binding my #scrappytripalong...
I am now over halfway round, about 5 out of 8 yards sewn; I was thinking I might get it finished this evening, but maybe I need to give my eyes and fingers a rest and have something to look forward to tomorrow evening. Still undecided.
It has snowed and thawed at the same rate all day, so we are no worse/better off than we were yesterday; school have already texted saying that they hope to be open tomorrow, so saving that binding may well be a good idea; another day of kids, or a day at work, it's a toss up which I would prefer less!
it looks lovely! enjoy your quite day binding!
ReplyDeleteSave the rest for tomorrow, hope the snow goes away and the kids get to school, so you can get to work :) One of the main reasons I don't want snow is that I can't take time off sewing to mind the kids ha ha, seriously though, you wouldn't mind during the holidays, but they're only back in.
ReplyDeleteWow, my kid's school does not text. I hope you have a lovely day tomorrow either way, you are binding with such a lovely print.
ReplyDeletePrimary school closed here but still have to venture out for secondary. Not fair!
ReplyDeleteI don't have to leave the house, which is just as well as everything is under quite a layer of snow here. Looking forward to seeing your scrappy TATW finished.
ReplyDeletedaughters school open. sons school shut. no word from my school. i hope to be home!! i really do love the way you put colours together. x
ReplyDeleteThat's what I was doing tonight too! Sore fingers now! Jxo
ReplyDeleteWell I still have to trudge to work, but there were blocks I was hoping to work on instead. Doubt there's going to be a huge downfall of snow in the next few hours though, we haven't had any yet!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen it yet but I've seen the Circus Afro bit on youtube and love it every time…
ReplyDeleteThe binding is the best part. :-)
oh I can't wait till I'm binding mine! Can't wait to see your finished #scrappytripalong!
ReplyDeleteI'm still loving the pink!
ReplyDeleteall three schools open here, so it's work for me :-(
ReplyDeleteLooking great Hadley. I love the binding
ReplyDeleteBinding and Madagascar = happiness!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness that's my perfect evening. Sky leftovers and a binding. I couldn't be happier!
ReplyDeleteThe binding is fabulous. I am not sure I've ever used pink binding so maybe I need to put that on my bucket list!
ReplyDeleteThis is going to look great when its finished. Loads of snow here after snowing all day yesterday but managed to get to the shops and out for a lovely walk :)
ReplyDeleteIt's perfect binding weather here in Tennessee, and I'm feverishly working on having something to bind! A belated congratulations on the first annual "blog comment award". :-) I must say, as a non-blogger, that you have given me the MOST encouragement simply via your replies to my comments. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteI hope you spent the day stitching binding rather than at work...any chance school was open but work wasn't?!
ReplyDeleteThis is very classy scrappy. Haven't you finished yet ? We're all holding our breath waiting....
ReplyDeletenope, not finished yet. Maybe next post.
