Now, normally I don't give you a sneak peek at my projects until the end of my post, but I'm feeling a bit upside down tonight so I'm sharing that first.
Remember Skating Rosey from my "Christmas Package In Stitches" designs? Well, maybe she has a sister who lives in a warmer climate? We'll see....
~~~~~
As promised these are the goodies we bought at "that shop" yesterday.
A beautiful wooden box with a lift up lid to house all my instant cappuccino sachets (yes, I am thoroughly addicted to them!)....
...and this very pretty, but practical herbal tea steeping cup. You pop your herbal tea leaves in the cermaic strainer insert, put it in the cup and then pop on the lid so it can brew away until you have the strength you prefer. Wonderful for my bedtime chamomile!!
~~~~~
I have made a decision to make at least two churn dash blocks a day for my new quilt, hopefully more, but a minimum of two. I love today's two - the fabric is "Katie Jump Rope" and is my favourite Denyse Schmidt range.
It's Friday night here and time to wind down after another week and ease on into the weekend. I intend to stitch a little, bake a little, and catch up on some housework, but mostly I'm going to enjoy spending time with my beloved husband.
What will you be doing?
Hugs

PS: I have a new challenge for September! I'm going to work out what I can giveaway then I'll let you in on the challenge.

Your churn dash blocks look great Jenny! I can't wait for the new challenge as I couldn't take part in the sewing machine cover. Mine already has one I made a while back. Enjoy your day! :0)
Is that Robert Gordon Pottery ??????? - It looks like Liberty pattern? I love Robert Gordon - Have I ever told you that? Actually I am addicted to it - I have lots - LOL
Love the new warmer climate skater (is she on roller skates instead :))and I can't believe another challenge I haven't even started my august challenge, my poor sewing machine still has no dress and my Shabby Roses are done, how ever do you get so much done?
Looking forward to seeing the restof the "sister". How funny, I have just bought 2 of those teacups! Just right for dark and windy autumn evenings. ;)

Your steeping cup is lovely! I can't wait to see the full picture of your embroidery, I'm sure it will be something absolutely lovely!
Is there no end to your talent and imagination? I can't wait to see Skating Rosey's warm weather friend.
Oh I just love your cup!!! Your churn dash blocks are beautiful in orange :0)

Love the box for the coffee, I am sitting here drinking the Mudcake one as I type. I love robert gordon pottery as well! The factory is 10 minutes from my house and I have so much stuff, even keep some of my craft stuff in Liberty prints tins!
I can't wait to see your new project - love the peek so far! You got some wonderful things at "that shop". I love that cup - I've never seen anything like it.
Your churn dash blocks are wonderful. Two a day will get you done quicker than you thought. I'm doing that with dh's embroidered quilt - I'm stitching out two blocks a day.
Enjoy your weekend, dear Jenny!

I love your blocks. The box is wonderful, and so is the cup. Thanks for showing them to us.
Jenny, when do you ever get time to sleep?
"That Shop" just sounds delightful and your home is going to be so lovely as a result. The churn dash blocks look so bright and fresh. Looking forward to seeing the finished product, along with your latest stitcery.
