First up this week was a present for my brother's birthday which is on Friday He requested a slip cover for his Nexus 7 and unusually for me I had it made and posted at the beginning of the week. It should be well on the way to Shetland by now - no picture just now so as not to spoil the surprise.
I have quite a bit of catching up to do on the Block of the Month front so first up this week were the February blocks for the Sisters' Ten BOM.
I really enjoyed doing these, I knew I'd missed sewing but not just how much until I got started again on these. The novelty of the automatic thread cutter on my new-ish machine still hasn't worn off and weirdly I actually loved pinning and pressing these blocks too.
This is a quick post to get me back into the swing of things plus I've got to collect Jamie from Anchor Boys so off I dash, see you soon.
Happy sewing!
Bye for now

Had to google Nexus 7, seriously for a split second thought you'd made a patchwork car cover... lol
Really, really love those blocks!
Always good to be able to turn requests round quickly, and love the blocks
I laughed when I read Sarah's comment above, as I thought the same initially! :-)

That's Mad Old Aunty Sarah for you! She is a bit....you know. Special.
I'm glad things are settling down for you! Your blocks are so pretty. Isn't it weird how pressing and trimming aren't a chore when you've been away from your machine?
Really like that block, interesting to see what they will look like together.
