Ready set go, on holidays

So I'm heading off for a few weeks, of R and R with family and friends, I've got my gear packed... Ready for some stitching, some shopping and some prepping.

January is ready


And even February is looking good as the Pattern, has arrived, and a few fabrics chosen, some shopping for backgrounds is needed. I've packed my appliqué paper, so I might try to get something done too.

sounds wonderful (and organised). Enjoy. Out of interest - what applique paper do you use?

Sonia said...

susie, I use the appliqué paper that washes away, it's a system that Lynette Anderson teaches. I love it makes needle turn simple.
