It was a big day once again and I got lots of sewing done too so even better.......
Its just too wet to do anything around the farm so I signed off for the day........
The garden light catching the drips of water on the trees was pretty.......its was so wet with dew but not raining............this was when I headed out to the Chookshed to start zoom...........
zoom kicked off bright and early as usual and I was working on the binding I had attached on Friday afternoon..........I started stitching it down Friday night and got it finished first up Saturday morning on zoom.............
At one point I could not get out the door due to Bridget blocking the door.........
she loves camping on the deck..........
once that binding was finished I started on Miss Elizabeth............I had found some fabrics in a box that needed to be glued so I did that then I thought I would join them............
&&&&
zoom was a wonderful mix of girls popping in and out all day...........
with so many time zones you never know whos popping in when..........
some stay up really late........others rise super early.........35 girls from 7 countries joined in and it is amazing how wide and varied our topics are during the day..........and we are always learning something about another country............
This was the creek on Friday afternoon and it is the same or slightly higher this morning............
it was such a warm day yesterday I had to turn the air on on in the Chookshed for a few patches........cloudy again this morning...........hoping for some dry days so I can go to town...............
Check out a few new patchwork shops..........
ok best go find a quilt binding, cut some more hexies and photograph a few quilts if I can find mud free spots.............
Have a wonderful Sunday...........
Keep the love of blogging alive.......
Catch you later.......
Chookyblue.......
PS I will be starting a new scrappy churn dash quilt if anyone wants to join me.......theres a few keen.........

Thanks for hosting a fun zoom day for us. It's always such fun. You got lots done and your hexie panel looks fab!
It was a great day Chooky, thanks again for getting us all in the same place. Love you for it.
I think I'll need to shop for a neutral fabric for my churn dashes. Funnily enough I think I will have plenty of fabrics for the blocks. LOL
Another wonderful Zoom day. Hmm better print the pattern & see what fabrics i have to use. Hoping i have enough neutral for it otherwise a quick dash to the patchwork shop to see what they have :) Hugs, xx
It was so good to zoom in after me missing my retreat away. Help pass my day even though I needed a nap during it.
I enjoyed catching up with everyone I could with this Zoom meeting, so thanks Chooky.
Thanks for another lovely Zoom day. Gee, you got a few hexies done! I think Bridget wants to be close to mumma Donna . The Churn Dash quilt sounds interesting.
If wax fun to pop to the Zoom day gif a little while. Rather frustrating that the internet was too dodgy to join in again in the evening. You made very good use of your time. Great progress on the hexies. Bridget had such a hard life, doesn’t she.
Was lovely to join in to Zoom even for awhile , thanks Chooky.
Good progress with your hexies ..
Oh Bridget just likes to keep close.
Must download the Churn Dash pattern and get some back ground fabric next time I’m in town.
I wish I could have stayed with you longer on the Zoom, but the wedding day wore me out and I could only keep my eyes open for the 2 1/2 hours I was with you. It was great fun, and your challenge to get the binding sewn on my quilt by "tomorrow" made me buckle down and finish it before I signed off. Thanks--that was the push I needed!
Bridget cracks me up. It was pretty funny to hear her clomping around out there.
Oh, I hope you are drying out, and I look forward to more pretty quilt photos!
Thank you for organising again Chooky, I always enjoy zoom time. You got lots done through the day. Bridget likes to be close by doesn't she, I enjoyed her dancing!!
Glad you had a good day. I was tempted to join in but it was a lovely day here and I had garden furniture to paint - just as well as it is wet today! xx
Hi! I can only repeat what others are writing: thank you for organising another meeting of the 'Chookyshed Zoomers' (this is what I call us all ;)) An hour is better than none to meet you you!
Oh, I forgot: Can you tell us more about the Churn Dash Project? It would be great to work on something 'together' and I may need another UFO :)
Always love connecting with other quilters around the world everyone is so prolific! I wish we can get some of that rain here!
Thanks again!
Sorry I missed it, I did have plans to attend but it just didn't work out. Next time!!
Thank you!
Was great to catch up on Zoom, even for a short time, at least I managed to unpick and fix the quilt. Love that Bridget is close by to you.
Bridget on the porch was a great photo.
Did you discuss the scrappy churn dash at zoom? I missed that part. It could be fun.
What fun! SO sorry I missed another one. I did have a good weekend at our annual quilt retreat but missed Zooming for sure! Keep up the fun work!!
I'm sorry I couldn't join - its just a busy time at the moment - good that you have a change of focus and not all binding!
Love Bridget good to hear she is still hanging around.
