Feck it, I've gone back to bed to sew and watch crappy movies. Hopefully I will be functioning again after lunch 😴. #epp #kaffefassett #englishpaperpiecing #englishpaperpiecingeverywhere #selfcaresewing #selfcompassionatesewing #notselfishsewing https://www.instagram.com/p/BsxlwgPHXUT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wjz8zh8dwt4t

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

Yep, gone a little overboard on the hand sewing 😂. Knowing when to stop ✋ is key! I've loved enhancing this crazy #crumbblocks #portholes from my workshop with @afullenglish with all different threads, embroidery floss, linen and random old spools that have been lurking in my thread drawer, even metallic (which I managed to do with my sewing machine 😳, never managed that before !!!!!) This is destined to be a #cushioncover for my sofa, feeling like it needs a jolly up with some colour!! #miniquilt #quilt #quilting #sewing #sewingkeepsmesane #selfcompassionatesewing #scrapbusting #noscrapleftbehind #handsewn #handsewing #embroidery #handembroidery #machinequilting #quiltersofinstagram #colour #colourpop #modernquilt

Loving the #porthole tecnique !!! I'm wondering how much longer I can get away with sewing today😜! Should be emptying and repacking the car for the second leg of summer holiday. Out with the shorts and flip flops in with the raincoats and jeans!!!! ...........just another half hour........😜 @afullenglish #crumbblocks #portholes #quilting #patchwork #sewing #miniquilt #sewingkeepsmesane #selfcompassionatesewing

#epp . Just give me an empty table and I will cover it with fabric 🤣🤣😂. On "holiday" in a cottage with a big farmhouse kitchen table, and so far I have taken over half of it laying out my #regimentalstripes #englishpaperpiecing . #justfivemoreminutes #englishpaperpiecingeverywhere #sewing #sewingkeepsmesane #selfcompassionatesewing

#wip longest one is this #grandmothersflowergarden quilt which I will finish 😂......one day! #greatbritishquilter @sarahashfordstudio @verykerryberry it's getting there I have all the fabric I need. Thanks to some generous quilty friends. It's a project I get out when I'm wanting to not think about anything, I can zone out and just carry on with it. Let my fingers go on autopilot. I've made all the decisions already, colours and pattern. So I can just sew. It's one I take on journeys and on ferrys. And something I pick up when I'm not inspired. So I actually haven't picked it up lately 😂😂🤣😂🤣😂😜 Hey it's only taken me 2 years so far!! Maybe a bit longer 🤔💭time takes on a different meaning when you are sewing ! Also, if I'm honest, when I AM feeling down and uninspired by life generally, and I work on it, I can see that I have made it grow. Even if it's by one #hexies ! And that is SOMETHING. As opposed to sitting and moving through time whilst doing nothing, which sometimes, I am prone to do when depressed 🙄. #sewingkeepsmesane #quilt #quilting #quiltersofinstagram #grandmothersgardenquilt #hexielove #epp #englishpaperpiecing #englishpaperpiecingeverywhere #selfcompassionatesewing #selfcare #hexieprogressgrandmothersgarden https://www.instagram.com/p/Bns9mVZBPxt/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xu8dshqs3kih
