Friday Night Sew-In

 Last night I got back to my 'Happy Stitcher" hanging. 
Finished appliquing the centre onto the background. 
Oops! I should have pressed it before taking a photo!
Basted the two strips of wool onto the side borders.
 Made a start on stitching down the scallops.
Thank you to Wendy at Sugarlane Designs for hosting us.

My new sewing room is almost ready!
Soon I'll be able to give you a tour.
It's certainly been a big job.
