Well last night was FNSI and I thoroughly enjoyed pulling out this old sewing project. Yes I did actually sew lol. It was a bit of an interrupted night because I started at about 3pm and then took one look at Tess and it was suddenly Lance cooking tea while I took said silly doogie back to the vet again! I was looking at her and thought I recon I could see signs of the ulcer again well another appointment is made for next Tuesday and even more ointments, antibiotics, antihistamines and a doogie version of panadol were handed over. My usual vet was away at a conference but will be back on Tuesday but they had contacted him prior to my arrival. Good thing I forgot to take the insurance forms with me to post yesterday morning! So poor Tess is back to having the cone on 24/7 again. All that happened was she enjoyed about 3 hrs outside yesterday with a bone and the allergy flared up and away it went from there. So quick!
Ok enough about the doogie lol but here's the pics to prove I did get that sewing out and I sat with Tess, very close on the bed and half drugged, and sewed lots of white hexies around it to get it all squared up ready for the next row to be added. Might even do some more tonight if it isn't too hot here.
This morning I am finally trying something new called solar dyeing. I say finally because I have actually been trying to get it organised for the last few weeks but was busy with other things. I will be back to share a post on that later but it involves fibre, dyes, jars and the horrid hot weather!
Thanks for dropping by,

I hope your Tess will get better soon! The hexagons looks great, and I love the yarn you've spun in the previous post!
Love your hexies!!! I am working on one of those as well. I'll have to show a pic sometime soon. So much hand sewing - but that is my favourite kind. Sorry to hear your pup has such woes.
Love the hexies so far, so bright and cheerfull. Hope Tess is on the mend.I am waiting for the weather to cool off here as well. It's difficult to want to do anything when it's so hot.
Loving the hexie quilt...and your sewing basket!...poor old Tess, indoors for her, hope she gets the cone off soon...
Love your hexie quilt. That is on my quilty bucket list. Sorry your pup is under the weather. Ours just went through a bad spell a couple of weeks ago and is starting to act herself again.
Your hexie quilt is coming along nicely. Love the bright pretty colors.

Your hexie quilt is so pretty. Great sewing basket to keep everything together.
Love those bright and beautiful hexies and your lovely sewing basket too. Hope Tess is feeling better really soon can't imagine wearing a cone is much fun for her. xx
I hope Tess is doing OK, there's nothing worse than a pet in pain. Your hexie project is looking lovely, very fresha nd pretty. Thank you for visiting my blog and your comment, you showed up as a no-reply commenter. Good luck with the years of study ahead for your family!
Hope Tess is recovering - and you are not too frazzled! The hexies are coming along a treat. One of my daughters gave me a solar dyeing kit for Christmas a year ago. Mine involves photographic transparencies. I got it out last week, but the photo I had chosen wasn't high resolution so I've put it on hold. Hope I can learn from you!
