Well they say time flies faster when you get old, April flew by and I am older I refuse to say I'm old, that is why I work in Aged Care so I will be younger than the people I'm around. HAHA
April challenge for the Chookshed challenge was no 9 for me it was to make a Chandalier Quilt which I cut and took to Scrub Stitchin, unfortunately the fabric gods weren't playing nice and one of my fat quarters was small so I was 2 squares short, I have scraps so I can splice up what's needed, and then when I got home I couldn't find (and still haven't found) the scraps
She is under the needle at the moment waiting for work to finish so I can get back to quilting her,it's big and I love it.
This is Janice's beatiful Laundry Basket designs quilt that she was working on at Scrub Stitchin, then our great goody bags, the little corner that I was in surrounded by Janice's and Chookies quilts. Brenas lovelly embroidered picture embellished with old jewellry, A beautiful Barradine sunset, Tina and Harriet in their Star wars outfits and the room decorated for Saturday night dinner and lastly the braided designs that the girls were making with a jelly roll.
I haven't been sewing much this past week I think I oversewed to get things done for the show and Scrub Stitchin but I'm getting back into the groove now.
May Chookshed Challenge number is 5 which for me is my Basket quiltI think I have around 29 blocks done I just need to work out whats doing next.

Well done on getting the chandelier quilt top done. It does look fabulous. It’s fun looking back at Scrub Stitchin’ photos. I can’t believe it is nearly a month ago. I think I’m feeling the same as you, after getting everything thing ready and then the hype of Scrub Stitchin, I’ve been in a bit of a stitching slump. I’m sure we will both get enthused again soon.
the Chandelier quilt looks great......look seeing what pics people share.......thank goodness some of those kittens disappeared.........
Congratulations on your lovely quilt top! I have always loved that pattern but never made it.
I enjoyed your Scrub Stitchin' photos!!!! Thanks for sharing them.
