July Finished

Here is my July finish .... just a tad late due to three and half weeks overseas ... had a great time but it sure plays havoc with my Stitch A Long speed ....


I have cut out all the pieces for August and need to have a sit and sew session to get that all together .... I will be pushing it for the September deadline I think .... it is lovely to see the variety of fabrics and colours used .... they all look great !   I have again changed mine a little from the original pattern ... but am happy with the result ....

Your center block looks very nice. Holidays are amazing but it always takes a while to get back into your home routine!

This is looking beautiful. (I'm only up to the background stage of this block! and I didn't have an overseas holiday!). Well done.
