Blacking Out & The Body Under The Patio.

Despite spending most of yesterday in full on sewing mode, I won't be showing the mainstay of what I did as it involves those dratted curtains, grrrrrrrrrrrrr!  I am now half way through, and 2 of the 4 are now re-lined with blackout lining, and hanging in their new home (my friends house). She's rather pleased with them, apparently they look exactly the same but with blackout lining, I had to point out that that was the idea!  

So, enough of that snoresome talk, and onto the other things I've been up to, also not that exciting, but it does mean I am making some progress towards turning this lovely quilt top

into an actual real, live, quilt, hoorayI now have a rather large pile of "slabs" that need "laying" into a patio style backing for it (no bodies buried under this one I promise)

With only 6 days left in the month, I need to make some of those "in progress" items into completed, wish me luck!

  2. No bodies under this one leaves me to question which ones do have bodies under them?! But the quilt top is looking mighty fine.
