BFF RAL not SAL

 a double change to the plans for tonight, after a missed week that was my drop off due to there being too much going on in my head!

Anyway, we did have a next project planned for this week but I have suggested a change to that and Roni has agreed. We would have been trying something new to us both that looks like it might be quite quick and that I don't anticipate Deborizing. However, as Roni explains on her blog Click here to pop over for that,  circumstances change and so do priorities.

So this week became a RAL (random along) and whilst Roni cross stitched there was still a bit much going on in my head for any complex counting type stuff so quilting tonight.

You might be thinking it would be on my "fan quilt" (LOL that is a working title, not sure it will get that as an official name) but no, I am potentially finished quilting that. It will get its own post a little later once it has a name and a label on it I think, well unless I go madly off  on yet another tangential addition that is.

Tonight it was back to adding quilting circles onto the original bits-a-quilt. It would have been very soothing except my thread was feeling Knotty, yes with a capital letter! It was reasonable soothing as most of the knots came out eventually, otherwise it would have been all caps!


I managed four circles, the picture shows two of them.

One is on a previous added repair patch.

I have during the week done a little bit of sewing on Bits-a-Quilt number three (well sort of five but I count the blue and white one and the white and lilac satin as a separate category as they had colour restrictions imposed on them) and some work on the yellow and white bits-a-quilt which is very close to becoming a top.

But I didn't take pictures of those so updates will have to wait I guess.

With luck and a fair wind we will be both back for a RAL next week.

  1. Wow... 5..my bitsa stalled at the top stage once I overcomplicated it. This (and discussing quilts again) may challenge me to get it out for a Good Hard Stare
