FMQ Tuesday!



Did I ever think I would get around to catching up with little green men again??


No!


But here I am on what is supposed to be FMQ Friday but has slipped into FMQ Tuesday!  Why?  Because I was having a mad panic dash to finish my swap obligations amidst sick children and a hubby returning from a week in Japan and quite frankly something had to give !


So apologies to all those diligent FMQers and here are my efforts!  For last week!


I have already had a go at last week's pattern and found it rather a tricky one




But today I will conquer those little aliens - otherwise known as H2O!


2nd attempt is here!


The front...




The back...




And yes I am flaunting my Aurifil win because I used my precious green Aurifil 28 in the making of these samples.  Don't know if it is the thicker thread this time but it does look better!






Oh and yes I have felt tipped in a few cheeky faces - couldn't help it!  I am sure I wasn't the only person channelling Toy Story's little green men doing this one!



And to take it one step further....or maybe too far...











 As you know all little green men have four digits, three eyes, two antennae and a partridge in a pear tree - oops that is a different song!


Having fun with FMQ? - oh yes!  And now I'm off to join the party if I am not too late already!
