Therapy Thursday

Despite working a full day, and then working at the school production, and despite the sewing room looking as if an explosion had occurred recently, I HAD to do some sewing.

I dont know if I mentioned that the June meeting of the Richmond & Kew quilters was a Charity Quilt night.  At variuos desks around the room people were contributing to making charity quilts.  I know some Dear Jane blocks were being made, and I'me sure others were too, but I was chanied to my sewing machine for the whole evening and didn't see anything else.

I had teams cutting & counting out 42 x 2.5inch strips which I then joined into one (very) long strip, with others snipping off the triangles, and pressing the seams.

We made one top during the evening,

and I brought home one pack of strips, 

and one very long strip, so as a bit of therapy I have started joining the long strip.  Not very exciting but it's now 4 times as wide as it was, and 1/4 the length, and I have done *some* sewing
