Fresh Sewing Day!

Hello November! Nice to see your frosty mornings and crisp autumn winds.

It's Fresh Sewing Day at Lynne's, so I thought I'd put a mosaic together of some of the stuff I worked on during October. It's not all here since the weather hasn't been super cooperative at the times when I want to take photos. Today is looking promising, though, so watch this space for more work soon!

All over October - Poppyprint's month in stitches

If you want more info on any of the photos, just click on the mosaic to reach my flickr stream and the links are all there for you just below the picture.

One thing I haven't shown you yet is the pine tree block in the middle top row. That is the block I chose for my month in the Stash Trad bee. We are making traditional blocks for our bee-mates out of fabrics from our own stash. Literally within two days of posting my sample and the instructions, 5 others have already made their blocks for me. Can I just say that this might become my all-time favourite quilt? So excited!

I'm linking up so you can click on this button and find the list of other participants and check to see what they've been up to in the last month! Lynne also has a small blog meet up running on the first of the month - head over to visit some of the newest friends in blogland and show them some love.

Fresh Sewing Day

HAPPY NOVEMBER!

Great make- I do love red too, and as for the chihuahua hoop- hilarious- the collar detail is fantastic!

I was eyeing up Amy's pine tree block earlier and wondered which Krista she was referring to. It was you of course! That quilt is going to be a spectacle. Can't wait to see the other blocks and what you do with them.
