Another year has passed and I've hardly looked at my sewing machine.
I hit a problem with a pattern I was following three years ago and just stuck there, in limbo! The obvious remedy (I now think!) was to sew something else, no matter what: crumb blocks would have been a good answer, there are enough fabric crumbs around here. But, alas, even that seemed too much.
This month's request from the "Do Good Stitches" Comfort Circle (Dutch group) is a pair of Hugs and Kisses blocks. This morning I pressed and cut the necessary pieces:
and intend sewing them this afternoon. A nice easy project to get me going again.

1 July 2026 I wrote the above in January last year, but couldn't link up. I hope it works this time, in which case ignore the following sentence.
The next obstacle in blogland is to link up with the above. I've followed the instructions - each time without success.
Secondly someone told me recently that last time I posted I was in no-reply mode. Am I still? Please comment and let me know.
And so to sew,
Keep safe
and enjoy your creative hobbies.
