Sewing Day Sampler . . .

It's a finish . . .


I have had such a lot of fun making this gorgeous sampler by Anni Downs of Hatched & Patched.  As you can see it has a variety of tasks - my favourite hexagons, my least favourite nine patch (there must be a secret to lining up blocks), sewing on buttons and embroidery.

My only problem is the hanger . . . I am not keen on the way I have it sewn onto the sampler, it really should be on a dowel - my DH's shed is out of dowel!!!  Anyhow, that can be fixed up at a later date.

Well off to boil the jug and check out what else I have in the sewing room - still raining here, how about where you are!

Cheers, SuziQ
