Well April certainly went quick, Scrub Stitchin was a great weekend with friends, lots of sewing, chatting, a few drinks and lots of food. Below is a pic of the women from the cabin I was in, minus Chooky.
I got a lot of sewing done, not a lot of photos but never mind. I finished my Springtime quilt top which was my March Chookshed Stitchers Challenge. The blocks are for the scrub stitchin quilt organised by Raewyn and chooky.
Above is a photo of all the lovely scrub stitchers, does that make us scrubbers?.....
Since getting home I have been sewing everyday like a good non housework person I have made 4 Farmers Wife blocks, the 4th isn't pictured but it is done this was my April Chookshed Challenge to do some foundation paper piecing. It is only a small block but takes ages to sew, for me anyway.
My night sewing is an old EPP project from way back I think around 2017, it's a Hugs and Kisses pattern, certainly not the fabrics I would be using if I made it now.
The garden is going great after a bit of rain and some cooler mornings and nights. we have flowers on the Rosella bushes, I plan to try and make some jam this weekend and the Lilly Pilly and lemon trees going well too
Work is settling down to normal after the public holidays, so all good here Bring on May

Your April was a good month, very social as well as productive. I hope your preserves go well with your “exotic” fruit that we can’t grow down here.
Those foundation and hexie blocks all look great. Your finished Springtime quilt top looks beautiful. Great to see you at scrub stitchin'. Hmm, yes I think that makes us scrubbers. LOL
