August furtle

Well!!! It's been a great month! Look! Actually sewing! This is the August bee block for siblings together can't believe I actually sewed this 😊

My round and round the woodland sampler is done! How cute is Mr Badger 🥰

Lovely chum Ruth sent me a care package from FOQ ❤️

I git some fabric cut up to start the applique on this but the Pick a petal BOM has taken over!
 

The two finished Siblings blocks

It took a while and some sweary words but my center block for this is done!

I also got the first of 30 of these done! All hand sewn 😳

After the round the woodland SAL I started this I've had it since 2020 so now it's time has come!

I still can't believe I made this! Yup it's not the best I've made but I'm ridiculously proud of it

One of our selkie chums is having a hard time and the group is putting together a care hamper for her I wanted to put in a pouch and some Doric gifts she is from the North East too. This took me over a week but it's done! So chuffed!

Also my obsession with needle minders continues 🤣

For a bit of accountability and to hopefully keep me on track I want to start posting some fabric stats at the end of each furtle post, I keep a fabric inventory each year, how much fabric in and how much out. Its normally been fairly even but last year it was about 2 meters more in that out but since I stepped doing any quilting in June I think that's understandable I had bought loads thinking I would use it up but couldn't. I hope to rectify this 😊 the main reason I'm doing this is for our move in 3 years. I want to have made significant dents in the stash, let's see what I can do 😊

OK that's pretty good considering I've just started sewing again! The 13 meters out has technically not been used yet but it's been paired up sorted out and is ready to go so I'm counting it here 😊
