OO la la! Sew day fun!

 Wow , had beautiful weather 

and a sew day !  Dazzling conversation too!

The variety of conversations at sew 

days are truly fantastic! The summer 

sewing room did well today! 

I made houses (15, but here 

are the purple ones)

 These are 3 1/2 " cut and very fun to do!

Talked about moose sightings, (we had three moose 
right in our small city recently)!
That of course led into more talk 
about wildlife, so 

we discussed the slightly disturbing

fact of urban coyotes. Most city 

dwellers are not aware that single 

lone coyotes have adapted very 

well to city life.



I found 10 magic pinwheel blocks 
while looking for more scraps , so 
those went together as the starter for a 
small table topper or baby quilt.



 There were enough pieces and parts in the 
bag of scraps for 6 more blocks. 


 
A  few complimentary squares from 
the stash and a very scrappy border
finished it off nicely. 





While I was stitching that , talk moved 
on to distance walking. A few sewers 
are doing some major footwork in the
next while. A walk on RL Stevenson's 
path in France as well at a 50 k walk
is planned. That is some dedication!

The plan for this week was pinning 
and quilting but it was revised 
when the weather cleared and the sun came out. 
These lovelies did get pinned tho.


And finally I got some more RSC 
blocks ready . The clothesline is filling up nicely!


If the weather gets stormy it will be quilting time!
Otherwise, the patios are calling and the flowers 
are blooming.



Stay safe and sew on !
