Was a good opportunity to get out the green scrap basket and make a start on going through to find suitable fabrics for a green potato chip block seeing that green is the RSC colour for May.

Eight red library bags had their drawstring casings sewn during the week (the light has altered some of the reds making them pink and purple).
A red and white beanie was completed
I enjoyed this gingerbread easter bunny with a cup of coffee for morning tea as hubs and I sat outside on our balcony enjoying the glorious autumnal weather that we are having at present. It has been a quiet Easter as we celebrated Easter last weekend with Miss M and her parents with Miss M staying on with us until the middle of the week. Having been out and about every day with Miss M last week I have decided to stay home for the rest of the school holidays as the City and everywhere else that we visited was soooooooo crowded and busy.
I have taken advantage so far of this "self imposed exile" by catching up on a few domestics, then tiding up the sewing room and finishing off two table mats. I have had the fabric in my stash for sometime and seeing that there was quite a lot of red in it it fitted in well with the RSC of month.
My wish list comprised of 5 items and maybe something else if time allowed. On day 3 a red beanie was started and worked on and off while watching tv over the last couple of nights.
First item on my wish list was a red potato chip block. Done

Chookyblue is running her annual Scrub Stitching again this year and those of us who are not attending in person can play alongside at home. A thank you goes to Susan who has organised The Claytons Scrub Stitching.
What a good opportunity to work on my red scraps as this is the chosen RSC this month. My wish list is
1. Red potato chip block
2. library bags
3. Sewing mat when using the overlocker
4. A red beanie
5. A child's charity quilt
And anything else that crosses my mind with the fabrics that I have.
It looks like the dates for S/S are from the 9th to 13th April during that time the school holidays start and Miss M is coming to stay with us for part of the first week so I will work with what time I have before she arrives. First up will be the potato chip block.
I did not post the 2 plate cosies and heat packs that were ordered last week. Here they are below. The plate was purely for show not part of the order.
