Madly Stitching & OPAM!

It was a dark & stormy night ... Well ... It's afternoon & not THAT dark ... But there ARE storms thundering around. 😜 So I've settled in with a cuppa, lit my "Aussie Bush" BOC & Co candle, am listening to the soothing Celtic tones of Enya & madly stitching on my Secret Squirrel design for Girls' Stitch In on March 14 & 15. 




If you'd like to come & enjoy being spoilt in good company by Marion & Steph of The Quilters Angel  book your seat quickly. πŸ˜‰ Stitching events organised by Marion & Steph are always fabulous & you get to catch up with Natalie Bird who is one of the guest designers, along with yours truly. 😁 I'm madly stitching away to have the embroidery elements of my design ready to be sewn into the final project on my day off this Friday. I know what I'm going to do (mostly! πŸ˜‚) I just need the uninterrupted day at home to DO it. The start of my year seems to have been a wee bit muddled & busy ... Surprise, surprise! πŸ™„

And speaking of muddled & busy ... I'm finally getting around to doing the January OPAM prize draw. 😜 I usually do a double-whammy draw for January/February at the end of February to give everyone a chance to sign up & get into the swing of things but most of you were quick off the mark to email your tallies, so we had ...

164 FINISHES!

WOW! Clearly some of you were far more organised than me! 😝 And the winner of the random prize draw is ...


Congrats Karen! Drop me an email & I'll send you a PDF copy of the prize pattern. Well done to everyone who had finishes on their tally for January ... Think of the space you now have in your sewing cave that you can fill with new fabric! πŸ˜‚

Now I'm off to sip more tea, listen to more Enya & stitch some more before the storm hits or I have to stop to make dinner ... Whichever comes first! 😝 Til next time me ...

BEAR HUGS!

CHEERS!

Congratulations Karen! We are finally receiving some rain this evening, after missing all the deluges on the coast. Your way of settling in to stitch sounds ideal.
