February furtle

 When the heck did it become March???? Well end of February.... 2023 marches on but there is one constant in this batshit crazy world of ours  and thats a furtle! So without any further ado let's see what's been up this month!

Is the world ready for a lego mini budsmam 🤣🤣🤣 a belated retirement present, so cute!

I've been playing catch up with embroideries this is the 2023 sunny quilt embroidery by Lemon drop shop, fun free stitch along on Instagram, I also managed to finish last year's cosy quilt at the same time! Two ✔️s off the fettling list!

Both of these will go into my temperature embroidery book, I still need to put together the one for 2022 ... thats fir another furtle though!

Awww my scoobs! I made this stitch on banner for a chum who is in the process of getting a sewing shed built, she is a big Tula fan. I love making these banners, great pattern by happy sew lucky, quick make too!

So who wore it better 🤣🤣🤣 this was a bit of fun on Instagram. More importantly it marked the finish of one of my longest wips! The tresna scarf. 

Another present for a chum the organiser of the Gartmore retreat, I had forgotten what a satisfying make this pouch was, the boxy clear pouch by Aneela Hoey.

My favourite urn from Gartmore!

I made a start on the bubbles quilt. I'm doing it in speckled fabric I want it to look like planets. I'm thinking of either 4x4 or 5x5 layout I love the look but to be very honest the blocks are really tedious to make ... but I love the effect so will plough on with it.

Awwww 🐼🐼 stitch markers ❤️❤️ a lovely present from a super chum 😊

Milkshake vending machines 😳 who knew they were a thing! We stop off at the smiddy farm shop sometimes for a bacon roll, unfortunately dairy is not my friend at the moment so I didn't indulge!

I love epp and do hope to do a bit more but I'll never be able yo do a huge amount so the winter mystery project from nordic crafter and stitching notes was ideal for me. Great fun.

And also this happened!

Yup! I am going to see Donny Osmond!!!!!! I know its hysterical but hey it will be a fun weekend with two of my oldest chums and I simply cant wait 😊

Let's finish off with this, I will write it up more fully but Katy Cameron gave me a fq bundle of playtime by Melody Miller to make a charity quilt. Using the omcoc pattern by Lucy Engles I made this! So much fun to do.

So that's a wrap for February, quite a few ✔️ off the fettling list there! See you in march!
