April furtle

It's been a slightly lean furtling month since I've been gallivanting a lot 🤣 but there has been progress! A couple of small things ticked off fettle list, this drawstring bag for my sister, she has a sewing machine and this is for the foot peddle
I started a new scrap quilt 🤣 using up the black sashing from my Dear Jane quilt which I unpicked I'm making string blocks which will hopefully use up a lot if not most of my scraps, I dont like scraps they annoy me 🤣 I'm going to try and cut up future scraps and maybe make a drunkards path Scrap quilt? We shall see
below is not my work!!! But how gorgeous and fun is this bollard topper! See down Fraserburgh beach last week
Another finish! The one meaningful word embroidery from Lolli and Grace, I do love the variegated threads although the red did run a bit 😕
I need to get this quilted! Maybe in May? The selvedge quilt is all done top put together ready for quilting 
Tiny nine patch hmmmm I seem to have stalled on this, I will get back to it, I've chosen fabric for background just need to clear out some of the other in progress tops
As mentioned above I unpicked Dear Jane ditched the black sashing and used the background colours for sashing instead, I'm happy with the change, fingers crossed it will let me progress now
The center block of the "In the Meadow " BOM from Quiet Play, am loving this but need to crack on with it, I need to stop gallivanting 🤣🤣🤣 (never gonna happen 🤣🤣) 
Again another top ready the marbled fabric one!  It will get quilted along side the selvedge one 🤞🤞
And that's it for April! Linking up with Archie The Wonderdog for this months Furtle

  1. “Slightly lean”?! I see lots of lovely progress and two gorgeous fettled finishes! Roll on May when I imagine it’ll be a plumper furtle (which will be like a bumper edition for anyone else) and I’ll be waving pompoms like billy-o! Thanks for Furtling, hooray for finishes *waves pompoms*
