Sew happy

Saturday it was once again grey and rainy (off and on all day), and though there are still things to be done outside, I decided to spend it indoors instead of trying to work between showers. I did a few things around the house in the morning, and told Dave to leave me alone for the afternoon, I was going to the studio.

And though it was grey and rainy, I had a lovely colourful view from my sewing machine out my pretty new window!!! Our colours are just a few days past peak, and still so pretty. They almost glow against the grey clouds.

When I wasn’t staring out the window and marveling at Mother Nature, I was working on the latest Blockhead sew-along block.

Now we have five blocks total.

After we finished that up, the boys helped me do some much needed organizing in the studio.

And once it was all tidy, Burton and I worked on a secret Christmas project. Sorry – we can’t share. But it’s going to be an awesome one!

It was so nice to have some uninterrupted time in the studio again. I hope we get to do it again soon!

  1. That is a pretty view out your window. I finally started to see some gorgeous colors in our neck of the woods this weekend. Even on the rainy days, the leaves are gorgeous. I like how each of those blocks is different – that will be a very pretty quilt. hope you get more time in your studio soon!

  2. What a nice view you have out your window Val. Our trees are about like yours, just past prime color, but still very pretty. The boys look like they sure enjoyed helping you in the sewing room. They are very dedicated helpers. 🙂 Your blockhead quilt is going to be so pretty. The red and white just “pop” with the different blocks.
    Hope you have a great Monday!
    Blessings,

    Pretty view and pretty quilt! It’s a bit chilly here this morning so I’m in a rare cozy mood. It won’t last though. We’ve got a heat wave on the way.

    The newest block is beautiful and showcases your fabric so well! Burton is so fluffy – even his feet/toes. Great view from your window.
