Bird goes round and round! This could be an allegory of my life 😂. This is my 6-pointed diamond star for week three of the #fussycuttingsewalong hosted by @naomialicec #konasolids #epp #60degreediamonds #starflower #englishpaperpiecing #englishpaperpiecingeverywhere #makersgonnamake #isew #sewingforsanity https://www.instagram.com/p/BtBkZOhnvQS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5n2e5ei1fir5

I finished my #bubblepod 😂 pattern by Beth Studley , it came out different, to the picture as I didn't follow the instructions terribly well 😊. But it is finished, and now Pumpkin wants one! #pod #sewing #fabric #storageideas #quilting #quilter #craft #sewingforsanity https://www.instagram.com/p/BorA29OHmcB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fsval3q9bjn3

So after a hyper focused couple of days, which included; precise points, trying to get to grips with 💻 drawing (yeah, that's going to take a while 😂) and doing annoying, yet has to be done paperwork, I blew off some steam with some #crumbblocks this afternoon. I'm loving pink and orange right now!!! #sewingforsanity #selfcompassionatesewing #improvoctober #improvquilting #quilt #quilter #fabric #sewyourstash #noscrapleftbehind #scraps #sewingscraps https://www.instagram.com/p/BojzoE_HmkH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1510897u19cjk

I found to pockets with zips for my #epp to stop them escaping😁. I have to admit I've been very jealous of @naomialicec epp pouches from @sarahashfordstudio they are perfect for a busy #englishpaperpiecing addict, but unfortunately things are a bit tight so I can't really justify buying some right now😩(have put on Christmas list already 🤣). But guess what I found yesterday..... yes that's right 👆these beauties. Rainbow stripes ✔️ Favourite colour blue ✔️ Zip up closure ✔️ Two different sizes ✔️ Guess how much? £1.00 for the big one, and 80p for the small one 😁😁😁😁. A bargain like that can not be passed up 🤣🤣. Anyone care to guess where they are from? #hexies #hexagons #hexielove #epp #paperpiecingeverywhere #grandmothersgarden #doublehexieflowers #scraps #stashbusting #noscrapleftbehind #quilting #slowsewing #selfcompassionatesewing #sewingforsanity #busyignoringwashingup

New #ironingboard cover! Finally actually finished it, after it just being cut out and lying on the ironing board for two weeks🤣🤣🤣 Used some #kaffefassett fabric I had. Well I'm going to be looking at it a lot it might as well be beautiful😁. #quilting #ironingsucks #sewing #sewingforsanity #selfcompassionatesewing #busyignoringwashingup

Bit of #handquilting last night, as the boy NEEDED my desk to do computer on! So I cleared the large stack of stuff of my other chair and did a bit of hand quilting. Haven't done it in a while, finger is a bit sore today 🤣. Hoping the hand stitching will stand out on the incredibly busy piecing 😜🌈. . . #quilting #bright_and_bold #sewing #sewingforsanity #selfcompassionatesewing #quiltersofinstagram #patchwork #busyignoringwashingup
