It has been a couple of weeks since my last posting. My time being taken up with some family stuff.
But I did manage to get "some" sewing done. The first lot of photos here are more of my blocks from Barbara Brackman's Grandmother's Choice BOW, that I have called Votes for Women.
Another project I'm working on is a hand sewing one - to take along when I go to Guild and my local sewing group. The centre is an appliqued quite large square surrounded by hexagons. I have chosen to keep with a colour scheme of blues/browns for the hexagons to compliment the centre square. I have sewn the strip of hexagons down yet - I need to trim the centre and measure the next strip of hexagons to make sure the fit the sides. But you can see how it will look.
When the surround is finished there is another round of applique finishing with another round of hexagons.

Love the "Votes for Women" blocks and the new hand stitched quilt is fabulous - I will enjoy watching its progress. Take care.
