More FWQ blocks

I'm just loving our taste of Summer at the moment.  Temperatures in the 30's; so unusual for us in UK, but it is taking a toll on the sewing front.  It just slows everything down and I'm finding I'm making more mistakes, like sewing seams together inside out.  I sew my seams for these blocks using a 1.5 stitch length so the ends don't come unravelled, but it means I have to unpick very, very carefully using a pin one stitch at a time.  I've managed to make five blocks this week, and nothing else.

#21  Contrary Wife



#25 - Cups and Saucers


#26 - Cut Glass Dish


#31 - Evening Star


#34 - Flock


Now my daughter has broken up from school for the summer I won't be looking after Molly all the time, so I have high hopes of getting more done now.
