Time to think about what I would like to achieve during the month of June. Much will be the same as usual.
RAINBOW SCRAP CHALLENGE
The colour for June has been announced to be orange. I will make my usual two split nine patch blocks.
CHOOKSHED CHALLENGE
The number selected this time is Number 5. For me that is the Sew Together Bag. I had to have a think to see if I will make it this month, or once again swap things round. I think I will, as it has been on my wish list for about ten years and I have had the fabric for two years. I have made a couple previously, as gifts, but not one for me.
Since the beginning of the year, I have found the missing fabric and Lou kindly provided me with the pattern, as I have still not located mine, which is annoying, as it has my hand written notes with it. But, in reality, I do have everything I need to make the thing……oh, I may need to buy a few zips. The fabrics I have chosen are the same Tilda range as the dilly bag kit that we received at Scrub Stitchin’ in 2023 and the fabric basket I made at the beginning of this year. Anyone would think that I like it. Also, previous Sew Together Bags that I have made have featured several diffferent fabrics. At this stage, I have only two. I may add more. I did buy more of the range when we went to Scrub Stitchin’ this year. However, they are earmarked for a By Annie bag. All very matchy, matchy.
I really want to get a wriggle on with the crochet blanket.
Now that I am ready to start the decrease rows it should really zoom along……I hope. Then to do a few rounds of something as a border. It would be nice if Mick could actually use it when watching the footy.
What else? I really don’t know.
Maybe try to progress the projects I took to Scrub Stitchin’. There has been no progress since I came home.
Perhaps, I will get the rest of the appliqué completed on the bright fish quilts. All that is needed is the grey of the fish skeletons (there are two) and all their eyes. It would be nice to get them moving along.
And maybe the Five and Dime quilt that I started at Baradine.
And the hexies are waiting patiently to be stitched into a panel.
Who knows? Time will tell.

A nice variety of projects to pick and choose from - no chance of boredom😂 I made my Sew Together bag with that Tilda fabric and love it. I like your crochet blanket. xx
You have a good list of projects to work on.
You have lots of lovely possibilities there. I'm sure you will do justice to the list.
Plenty of choice there....I like the bag fabrics.
Good to get the list made. I am not even thinking about mine until after this long weekend. At the moment my calendar is so full that even thinking needs allocated time. Good luck with your list.
Well, you won't be bored. Yep - get the bag done.....I am a fan of matchy matchy...maybe too much of a fan really...LOL
It’s a nice list to work on.
I like the fabrics for your bag and would be nice to see it made.
Not much to finish off the fish and crocheted rug for Mick.
You could sew the hexies together in the evenings maybe ?
It's nice to have choices!

Lots of possibilities. It will be interesting to see where you finally settle. :)
