Atm it's just hand sewing but english paper piecing. Lots of cutting and glueing before sewing it all together! Not super confident on the machine yet but it's a fun little time killer. 

Slowly making a quilt for my mum who's made so many for me.

This week's been tough. Hit a bit of a slump. Went out with a friend for coffe this morning and that helped immensely.

Hi @CatMum 

Welcome to the forums.

I love catching up with my bestie.

How do you like your coffee?

I don’t drink hot tea or coffee but I do like iced coffee.

I absolutely love transport. I love electric trains and the insides of trains too

Hey @Oaktree 

I love a good old long black, so am fussy where I buy from. Today's coffee was yum. I'm a bit of an odd bod cos I don't like milk

Wow @Toast89 I'm just really getting into sewing with a machine and that can be challenging and time consuming in itself! Hand sewing must take another level of patience, though then it makes me think of how I don't mind when knitting projects take me a long time to complete because it's not only the finished project I enjoy, but the actual process of sitting down and knitting. Is it similar for you and hand sewing?

If you'd like it might be nice to check out the Craft Corner thread, where everyone is encouraged to share their crafts

@Ru-bee 
Hey, been a busy weekend. sorry for not getting back to you sooner but yes, i do enjoy the mindfull yet mindless task of hand sewing. I usually put on something educational or mixhounds chill mix on youtube and just sew when I need some relaxation. 

Ill look into the crafty corner thread. 

@Shaz51 
it was definitely a warm one yesterday, thankfully cooler today. 

I lost three chickens to a snake yesterday.. now I shall anxiously tidy outside and mow some of the longer grass areas all while juggling my kids ndis supports and my own mental health T_T. Send help.

Sounds lovely @Toast89 I've recently started watching lots of knitting and sewing content on youtube while I knit. Makes me feel like I'm crafting with a friend haha
