June round up

Today I am linking up to the July Small Blog meet hosted by Lily's Quilts. June has been a really busy time and I think that this is reflected in having so few completed sewing projects. I have been to London for the FQ Retreat, Belfast and Cumbria. My time has been taken up in completing the Modern Retro quilt for my niece's 18th birthday.


Below is a mosaic of my completed projects.




This month I have also had the pleasure of meeting up with other bloggers. Firstly in London and then in Belfast, the following week. I have also met up with Trudi this past week and seen her fantastic studio and wonderful quilts. We also had a bit of a practice in making a framed purse. 
Finally, after some planning and plotting the hipBee bee was unveiled! 
We are getting ready to sew for our first queen bee, Reene, in August.


All in all it has been a month of making friendships.

  8. I think you've achieved loads this month. It doesn't have to be just the finished goods to achieve something does it?
