Fresh Sewing Day

Well, there will be no mosaic this month. 
That is really only effective if you actually have more than two finishes to show!

I scrolled back through October and while I'm pretty sure  I spent some time sewing, it sure doesn't look like much! Here's what I did accomplish:

 I crocheted something, and it looks almost like it is supposed to!

My first attempt at paper piecing. One block counts as a finish, right?

Halloween costumes were made, though minimal sewing was involved, especially for the older two...


And of course, I finished a quilt. I think you've seen it a few times...

Hopefully I'll have a few more things to share at our next little show-and-tell! To see what more prolific sewists can accomplish in a month, visit Lynne at Lily's Quilts for Fresh Sewing Day.

    Well I`m impressed. You crocheted a scarf and did paper piecing and there`s no way I will ever be able to do that or very well. Love your kaleidoscope quilt - love purple and orange together. Have a great November Toni! By the way - what a cutie!!

    Never tire of seeing that quilt! Love the crocheting too - I'd love to be able to whip up a cowl. I can't even knit though lol

    Well, it may not add up to much, but I think you accomplished ALOT - that kaleidoscope in itself is a major accomplishment! And your first paper-piecing - that is one creative block. You done good!

    you have done loads - finishing off your quilt is major - and it is so gorgeous. and paper piecing for the first time: I know how fiddly that can be

    You've had a variety of crafting experiences and learnt things along the way - what more could you ask for?
