String Block stitching this week.

There hasn't been a huge  amount of stitching time available this week, but this is what I’ve managed so far.  You may remember that my “Roll of the Dice” brought up number one on my list, neutral string blocks.  These blocks were made quite some time ago for another project, which I didn’t continue with.  So I’ve been using them in donation quilts.  This week I started with this last pile of assorted blocks and some pink fabric.

After some time spent diligently at the  sewing machine, this is what I finished up with.   Can you spot Gemma sneaking over for a photo bomb?  After all, she thinks, if I lay a quilt on floor, it must be for her to check out.

I’ll add a border later, and it will be big enough for a cot quilt.  That’s all the stitching I’ll be doing this week, as we are off on a caravan weekend away, but I’ve managed a little stitching time this morning, in-between packing the van.  Our destination is reasonably close, and we are not to arrive till after 2.00pm.  So we will have an early lunch before we go, then head off to Foxton.

It will be nice to catch up with caravan club members again, and we are looking forward to a nice social weekend.   I’ve packed my library book, and my knitting, just in case there is any spare time.
