June 2013

June was a funny month, busy and yet quiet at the same time, and full of post-deadline recovery.

Aside from flitting too and fro between Dorset and Sussex I had my first ever go at patchwork which I shall be sharing as soon as I can. I really enjoyed making this block though, so there are definitely more of them on the horizon.

Cheeky fabric purchases in the sale / rediscovering the joy of packed lunches at my summer job

What have you been up to this month?

This week...

...I learnt to do some patchwork!

I said I wanted to have a go at patchwork as part of my 22 before 22 list and now I am absolutely hooked! This is just the practice run for another ongoing project which I can't really say any more about now in the case the person(s) involved happen to see this post (unlikely, but you never know), but I'm hoping I should be able to reveal all in the next couple of weeks. In the mean time I'm planning a desperate scrabble round my craft cupboard to dig out every last little scrap of fabric so that I can get back into my sewing grove and get patching!
