FnwF------Word Photo Challenge

My Friday night started off a little behind, which involved me waiting for the free range girls to pop them selves into bed, so that I could pop myself down to Sues place for our FnwF get together.
I finally arrived to find Sue, Tania & Marg working very busily on the Underground Railroad block.
The block this month was the Wagon Wheel Block.
Skill Level Easy.
Margs Block....Marg hand stitched her block down.
Sues Block...Sue decided to machine stitch her wheel down.
Tanias Block...Tania decided to machine stitch her wheel down.
All of our blocks together.
This is my block....yes I know skill level easy, but boy did I have some issues..
The pattern called to back the wheel with interfacing which was fine until I ironed the front of my block....you see all of the interfacing at the back of the block melted and shrivelled under my wheel.
So I spent much time picking it all off my fabric and redoing the block.
I'm in the middle of hand stitching my wheel down.
 Some nights I just shouldn't leave the house.

Luckily all turned out well in the end - it's so frustrating when you have one of those days or nights were nothing seems to go according to plan. Lovely photo of Isis, such a gorgeous girl x

All the wagon wheels look great - what a pity yours had to be redone!

Love the free ranging chook, and what a beautiful canine you have.

Some days things just don't go to script. The results look great despite the heartbreak.
Your free ranging young lady looks very happy and healthy. Looks like life is very good for her.
