Sewing with Charming Girls Today


Well today is Saturday and it is Christmas in August Sewing Party. I am being a little ambitious I think..but here is what I decided to do for the day...I made this quilt a year ago for a friend and bought a kit to make my own too and never did so since its all sitting here and needs to be done I thought today might be as good a day as any to at least put a dent in it..I might be missing a couple pieces of the fabric because it seems to me that I had to use it in hers cause I mess up the cutting on some of the angles but we will see....of course I am also watching 2 of the baby granddaughters and one has already woke up 2 hours early sew it might prove to be a different kind of day..but we will see how it goes..I have never done a sew along and have been very excited about it...but life does happen...my goodies are ready and I am off to put the pork butts on the smoker for dinner....yummy ...I have plenty to share with everyone...sew lets get sewing..blessings

Your pattern is great and you have lovely fabrics to work with.
I hope the babies are good for you.
In a sew-a-long you just do what you can.
Have fun
