Catch up - FNwF and Out to Dinner.

A bit slow with posting this month, but I did join in FNwF.
I worked on my last Sewing Club projects from Sew This and That.  We made a block holder using the Riley Blake laminated fabric and either wadding or the squared design wall fabric.  We have made these to take our project pieces along to our club days - they will stay in place on the felty feeling fabric.  I need to stitch down the binding and add the buttons to this one.

 The second "roll" we made is a rotary cutter holder. It is also made using the laminated fabric on the outside and clear quilters vinyl for the pockets.  I am not sure that I will use it for that purpose though.  I like to have my rotary cutters out and ready for use while at home, and would take only the cutter needed to a class.  I can see it will be handy to transport other items though.  It is finished except for the buttons needing to be sewn to hold the elastic closures.

They were not the easiest things to sew by any means, but if you dont inspect too closely they are ok. 

Thank you again, Cheryll for another great FNwF.   I will be going to check out what other stitchy friends worked on for our get together.

As to the rest of the week - Last Sunday it was great to meet up with other Brisbane bloggers to go out for dinner with Chookyblue.  She had an unexpected trip to Brisbane, and it was so good that she took the time out to join us.  We went to the Kedron Wavell Services Club, and had a wonderful time - delicious food, lots of chatting and laughter, some show and tell of our Stitch A Long items.  

Here we are just before going home.  Cheryl, Lynda, De, Chookyblue, Maria,, me and Susan.
