SCRAP PLAY WORKSHOP

 I attended Sherri Lynn Wood's annual First Saturday of the Year Improv  Scrap Play Workshop on Saturday.  We were making 9-patch blocks.  I made a few during the workshop, one with mostly dark valued patches and another with all light fabrics with one dark.  Then I wanted to make another on a larger scale, but didn't finish it.

The next day I worked on it for a bit again.  This is where I left it all until the next workshop.  The blocks are not sewn to each other yet.

I MADE A WILLOW BIRD FEEDER, SORT OF

 I finally finished the Willow Bird Feeder I've been working on.  It is from a kit I bought from MyOwn2Hands.  

Mine doesn't actually look as nice as the example they show that made me fall in love with it and buy the kit.  But, I realized when I was almost done with it that I had inadvertantly skipped one of the videos!  So, I since I didn't have enough willow rods left to redoit, I just did the best I could to finish it.

My hands hurt.  On a good note, the husband likes it.  He thinks the wonky is interesting.

OUT OF AFRICA TOP

 After a lot of frustrating unsewing and resewing and cutting to match, I'm finally done with putting together the Africa fabrics for this top.

And it's pretty close to flat.
