August Focus Project(s)

 





Going through the last 3 projects we are doing in the Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge, I really do not know where to start. 
My projects are:

#8 The green Bronwyn Hayes stitchery - make a nice Christmas cushion.
#7 The lovely stitchery from Advent SAL by em-bea-roidery in 2023 - make a candle mat  
#4 Raspberry Tea Quilt, top nearly done. My goal is to quilt it in sections, on my own sewing machine. 
It is a rather big quilt, 69 by 69 inches. I need to find batting, backing, thread, courage and everything....

Deana, our fearless leader in this challenge, draw #3 for August, and since I have already done #3, I can pick and choose.

We are going away for some time this month, so my sewing room time will be limited. 
Therefore I will choose #8 to finish this month, 
and if there are some time and strength left, I will have #4 as my side project. Maybe I can finish it by the end of this challenge that ends by the end of October.

Take care 💕 Have fun!

  2. Enjoy your time away. I'm looking forward to seeing your quilt as you go progress. Little and often may be the way forward with that one.

  6. Great choice, Hanne. It is nice to have hand work for months like this. I did something similar in July.
    I wish you luck.
