and I'm still wondering where this year has gone...?
We spent the recent Labour Day l o n g weekend away with family...
Country style camping on a farm with only stars & a fire for light at night...
& by day... horses, cows, kangaroos, birds & a goanna or two as play mates.
It was a wonderful spot & ALL the kids LoVeD it...
We'll certainly be going back again in 2021...
In the sewing room...
I prepared the binding for my SPooLs quilt...
* * * * *
I also made chain link blocks using the RSC2020 colour of YeLLow...
& one additional "purple" block as well.
I've cut the remaining 4 block pieces too so that brings the total to 20.
* * * * *
I like using items that would normally be throw away... so after hubby finished drinking his "Crown Royal" (that is sold inside velvet bags), I converted them into "point protective" bags for my CRAZY 6 inch & 8 inch templates.

I've been working on finishing a project as well.
Layering... Pinning... & then Starting to quilt...
More on this one later...

Lovely work with your blocks and the recycling.
what a perfect weekend with family! Love all your projects.....for some reason I keep thinking of "card trick" block when I see your chain blocks....I guess if you turned them on point they would look like card trick....good repurposing of the Crown Royal bags.....I have seen some quilters make quilts out of them!
Nice job on getting your YELLOW blocks pieced for the RSC and SEW glad that you had some fun time away!!
Hi Chez great to see you and your lovely family enjoying camping.Its always wonderful to see what lovely work you have been doing,well done my friend xx
I've never seen the chain link block before. It looks interesting, but can you make it without partial seams?
That is a great use of those bags for sure.
I loved your Labor Day photos. My favorite was how the horses were so interested in the seated lady.
