Rainbow Scrappy Saturday and so on and so forth.

I haven’t done much sewing this past week for a real contribution to Rainbow Scrappy Saturday.  I’ve done a little crochet but not much sewing. 

If you’d like to see what others have done this past week for their Rainbow Scrappy challenge this week go to Soscrappy’s blog here.

However, I do have some pictures to share with you this last Saturday of the month :)  Some are pink too ;)

First pink related item 2 blue bowls/dishes purchased at a local charity shop for £1, sitting on my April Calendar quilt.

Next up, same wallhanging with another charity shop find:

  

 

 

 

 

 

A little heart shaped crocheted container.  It was only 50pence!!  I couldn’t leave it on the shelf.

Next find is a little cut glass candle holder plate for £1:

These were all bought on my day out with DD on Tuesday.  I thought a couple of them would make great pincushion bases.  The small blue glass bowl and the cut glass one.  Now as to when I’ll do these well… LOL.

Here’s a clear picture of the April Wallhanging (revisited) ready to put up above my sewing table tomorrow.

Now I did accomplish something yesterday evening.  I added sashings to the first row blocks of my Dear Jane and sewed them together :)

The row is so wide it extended beyond the width of my design wall where I pinned it up on to take the picture:

This should be clickable for a bigger picture.

I’m hoping I can keep this up and stitch rows together as I complete them.

Oh there is one more thing that I sewed up this week.   It was DH’s birthday yesterday but he really didn’t want much except he had asked me to make him a simple coin bag…. a very simple coin bag.  He even told me what fabric he wanted it in…. plain old heavy weight muslin. AND he also told me how to go about making it LOL… speak about telling your granny how to suck eggs!!!  Oh well I humoured him.  However, I drew the line at an absolutely boring plain bag and added a little machine embroider and his name. ;))

He has now caught up with me in age :))

Finally, I can’t leave without showing you a picture of our black bunny Malachi aka Bun Bun.  He is such a sweetie and as daft as a brush :

This is a picture taken just the other day in the garden… when we had summer visit us.  He is Chichi Bun’s Husbun.

 

That’s all for now ;)

Enjoy your weekend!
