Sew Stitchy

If the mojo has gone missing we all know a sure fire way of getting it back. Start making something that is not on your list of things to do. Better yet, do the new item with new fabric. I have some Sew Stitchy to play with and I adore it. Aneela Hoey designs the most delightful fabrics!


I love this fabric line.
The fresh colours and sweet sewing theme.

What's not to like about little spools, birds and pins?

Currently my plan is to make more of these small blocks
and then join them all up with more white sashing.
Needless to say, I will iron the white before cutting. Honest!

So a very happy Father's Day to all those fathers out there, including the one in our house who has been properly spoiled today. But more importantly, welcome back mojo!

  12. Love the bright borders! I completely lost my mojo after retreat too, and only got it back by starting some random new projects. I'm now feeling reinvigorated and ready to back and kill my WIP list.
